Jake's Karting career

Jake's first kart experience was on a junior leisure kart whilst on holiday in Spain, he raced against his friends and posted the fastest time. The following year, we visited the same track and Jake took part on the full size circuit up against seniors where he went on to post the fastest time. Since that day, karting has always been part of Jake's life.

Starting initially with S8 Racing, Jake has had some fantastic results, from race wins, pole positions and many fastest laps, including the world finals held in Le Mans.

This year Jake is racing for the highly professional race team KR Sport, where he will be challenging for the British title, along with the world championship. All of Jake's Super 1 races are televised and shown on Motorsport TV and the YouTube Super 1 channel. Why not take advantage of becoming a partner and gain some quality TV advertising?

Next year, Jake is hoping to progress into cars, where he will be moving into the Mini Challenge, which will run alongside his karting championships.

Jake's other interests

Jake is also a keen skier and in winter loves nothing more than a week in the Alps. His level is upper intermediate and will tackle the steepest, narrowest of runs. As with motor racing, Jake loves to race and is always looking for the fastest line down the mountain, challenging anyone who is with him. He also loves the boarder parks and will tackle jumps and ramps on skis.
