Matt's Vision for the future

Matt has had the passion and desire to be a Formula 1 racing driver since before Lewis Hamilton became well known 18 months ago. His friends over the past few years have been good at football, cricket, horse riding etc and although Matt had always been included in cricket and football teams, he will be the first to admit that it wasn't exactly his forte until he stepped in to a seat of a Go kart at the tender age of 10.

Good luck for the future!

24th August 2008 - In heat 1, we had a DNS (Did Not Start) due to the failure of the spark plug on the Dummy Grid & by the time a Good Samaritan ran over with a spare plug, it was too late & the Marshalls wouldn’t let him out.

17th August 2008 - Once Again, Well Done Matt & as there were so many drivers in the Final, he walked away with yet another piece of Silverware for finishing 6th !!

27th July 2008 - A big thank you goes out to Steve @ Snakebite. In Heat 1, Matt finished in 4th place; Heat 2, 12th place & Heat 3,8th place. This meant that he started in 8th position in the final. At the end of the 1st lap on a 13 Lap Final, Matt was pushed from behind in the “Boot” section of the track which spun him around facing the opposite direction. He had no choice but to wait for the other Karts to pass & then carried on. Unsurprisingly, he finished 24th !!
