With the season coming to a close, I’ve hung up my helmet and decided it’s time to stop racing. I’ve put my car up for sale (link in bio, it’s a good one!), I’ve sold the trailer and my tow car went yesterday too.
A huge thanks to the crew for sponsoring me this season - you really should check them out if you need a brilliant accountants - they’re lovely and I’ve been with them for three years so far. And a massive thanks to - it was a total surprise to win the Martin Kay trophy, it meant a lot to me but now it’s time for someone else to be awarded it.
“But why stop racing, Mark? Wasn’t this your childhood dream?” I hear you ask. Well, I’ve kinda lost my racing mojo, and although I’ve got much quicker this year and I’ve nailed my race starts - it’s started to feel like I was going through the motions so I figured it was probably time to call it a day.
BUT, all is not over. I’ve made some really good friends with all the team and my fellow drivers not to mention the rest of the grid, rival mechanics(hah!), chefs, and well, just about everyone really.
So, I’m super grateful and really quite honoured to be asked to a BRAND AMBASSADOR for Alpha7. I’ve already posted some videos on the channels that captured the weekend and am loving it - check em out…
Massive thanks to Ian and Amanda for inviting me to take on this new role. This is going to be fun…
