My name is Louie and I have been racing in senior rotax for over a year now. I have always dreamed of racing, from a young age I would go with my grandad to Brands Hatch for all kinds of race meetings, if it has an engine and wheels I’d want to see it racing. Racing is in my family blood as my grandad used to race motorbikes back in the late 60’s/early 70’s on a Greeves 250 bike and even shared a grid with the great Barry Sheene. My dad also loves racing and took me to F1 and Moto GP when I was a kid.

There is love for racing across my family, my cousin Billy raced karts and he kindly let me have a go in his senior rotax on a test day and from there I fell in love with karting. As soon as I finished school/college and went into a full time job I saved up to buy myself a kart. I work 2 jobs, one full time and the other in a restaurant in the evenings, just to afford racing as unfortunately I’m not from a as financially blessed background as most people in karting are.

I started my karting career by diving straight into the deep end of owner driver racing, having never even done a race before not even in rental karting, I had only ever having done a handful of arrive and drive rental sessions. I started in senior rotax with no clue what I was doing in regards to the mechanics of the kart, set up, etc and I have learnt so much about it over the last year or so and have a great knowledge and understanding of my kart now. I am getting on well with my goal of catching up with the front pack, most of whom have been karting for years, I am finally getting a better understanding and feel for the kart and what is it doing and how to correct it so I can push it even further. In 2025 I am hoping to close the gap from me and the front runners even more, hopefully even getting a podium finish. Unfortunately I can only do one race a month due too my financial situation, meaning I don’t have the seat time others do but no excuses just have to push harder on the test days and race weekends that I do have! Sponsorship would help me out massively achieve my racing dreams being able to compete in more races and having more seat time would really help me progress.

My 2025 plans are to compete in the MVKC full Championship as well as doing a couple of guest rounds at BMKR and WMKC.
