Age: 26
I started my racing career in 2003 in karting, I raced in the F100
series. There I learned all the ins and outs of race lines,
overtaking and racing between twenty other karts.
In 2004 I moved to circuit racing and entered the Free State Saloon
car series where I finished 3rd in the Championship and also
received “Rookie of the Year” . In the same year I also continued in
karting to sharpen my race skills. Also did the 2hour endurance race
at Phakisa.
In 2005 I entered the National Production Car series in a VW Golf, A
very competitive series where I learned all the tracks around South
Africa.
The same year I started my Oval racing career, My first year in Oval
racing finished 3rd in the championship.
In 2006 I moved up to the premier series of South Africa, Wesbank V8
Supercars in a C5 Chevrolet Corvette with 650HP. (Similar to Trans
Am Series). The same year I finished 2nd in the Oval series
championship.
2007 –2009 Wesbank V8 Supercars Racing for the Omega and Liqui Moly
Racing Team With 4 Podium Finishes in 2009. Continued Oval Racing
during 2007 and 2008.
Came 4th in the 12 Hour Endurance kart race with Jaco Correia
(brother) as a teammate, out of 24 karts.
2010 – Raced in the Free State 500 ASA nascar race and finished 10th
overall and 2nd of the SA drivers.
I grew up in a Racing family and Racing is part of our everyday
lifestyle!
I am 100% committed and focused in my racing career and trying to
improve on every event!
My Racing dream other than winning the Wesbank V8 Championship in
South Africa is to Race Nascars in the USA.
I was born and currently stay in Welkom in the Free State. |
