The big day may have come and gone, but keep in touch, as soon you will be able to read about it in our latest blog.
The motorsport dream has always lived in Dad, Adam’s, mind. In 2017, at the age of 27, he finally got the opportunity to own a race car. With no racing experience other than being an avid viewer and keen follower, it was a brave step to jump straight into a Formula Ford 1600 – described by many former Formula One drivers as the best car to learn your craft in, while being one of the most demanding to control and extract performance from.
Adam is the dad of Jenson (9), Rene (8), Ralf (6), and Roman (4). With his four boys attending races from their early weeks of life, motorsport has become a part of them, and it was only a matter of time before they asked the question: "When can I have a go?"
We purchased our first kart when Jenson was 4, and he started racing when he turned 6. Since then, he has had 3 successful seasons in Bambino, winning The Lydd Kart Circuit Championship and finishing 3rd in the highly competitive Rye House IKR Championship. He has won many races and set fastest laps along the way. In 2024, he moved up to the Cadet class, which is for racers aged 8-12 years. In 2025, he will compete at a national level for the first time, in the brilliant CKC Kart Championship.
Rene was set to move up to the Cadet class in 2024 but has decided against it. After 2 brilliant years in Bambino, Rene has enjoyed several podium finishes and showed real pace towards the end of 2024. It might be the end of his motorsport journey, or perhaps just a break? Watch this space.
Ralf and Roman will have Rene by their side this year as they support from the sidelines, playing a key part in the team as they show their support for both their eldest brother and their dad.
