You've got no idea some of the hurdles drivers face in making it to the global stage of Formula One. Succeeding as a racecar driver requires talent, luck, determination, money, teamwork and true grit. Melbourne based Jack started his motorsport career where most stars do, aged 8 in karting. Jack was quick to impress with podiums and a 3rd place in the 2016 club championships amongst far greater experienced karters. After Jacks 4 year stint in karting at club and state levels in between the step up to race cars, Jack just about lived in the bush driving and learning basic mechanics in offroad competition vehicles where he honed his craft as well as mechanical knowledge. This primed Jack for his first year of car racing in 2021 at age 15/16 where he secured 3rd in the Formula Ford 1600 Victorian state championships on his debut year with 9 podiums and one win. The ideal next step in 2022 was the Duratec (Modern) Formula Ford category where Jack secured 3 podiums, 3 fastest laps and finished the year 7th across that championship on his debut in the Mygale Formula Ford. 2023 and the move to England beckoned where Jack now 18 had the opportunity to make a name overseas with KMR Sport in the British GB4 series for his debut year competing with the best young drivers from around the world in cars with not only slick tires but downforce and wings as well. With multiple top 10 and top 5 finishes Jack finished the year 7th in the championship amongst 25 international drivers across the 8 round 9 month championship. During the 2023 year Jack tested a GB3 car (British Formula 3) at Snetterton circuit in an effort to be ahead of the game for 2024. Jack after his first day finished with the 2nd quickest time amongst seasoned pros. This resulted in a contract offer for 2024. Due to a lack of funding Jack was unable to compete in the European GB3 category this year. The plan now moving forward is to do a lengthy test programme back in the UK in the GB3 car for the remainder of 2024 in preparation for a full 2025 GB3 season campaign. Jack has been working tirelessly to create an investing team to enable his detailed plan to come to fruition which has been moving forward positively.

The $60k Target will go towards being back in the UK as mentioned to complete a testing campaign with the team Jack tested with in 2023. This programme will bring Jack to a level where he can hit the ground running by the season opener in April 2025.

Every Dollar counts and makes a huge difference as momentum builds. Please share this around and don't hesitate to get in contact with Jack via Instagram or email with anything at all.
