The story

From a cadet at Stretton to the world stage

I started in a cadet kart at Stretton Circuit aged eight and have been racing ever since — Open, TKM, X30, OK, KZ, 100cc and Division 1 Superkarts. No factory team, no big budget: just me, my dad on the spanners and my mum keeping the paddock fed.

Away from the track I’m a software developer and the founder of KartSetups, kart setup and data software built for racers. I bring that same engineering mindset to every race weekend.

The project

The Twin-OK

Two OK engines, one chassis and more than 80 horsepower. I designed and built the Twin-OK to see what a kart could really do — and it’s become the most-watched thing on my channel, featured by Karting1 and discussed on KartPulse.

It’s also proof of what sponsors get with me: ideas, engineering, and content people actually want to watch.
