About Me

Dominic (known as Dom) is 14 years old and dreams to become a GT champion. He’s always been competitive by nature and As a competitive swimmer since the age of 9, he has accumulated over 70 medals and awards, underscoring his dedication and discipline. Standing at 6’ tall and carrying 10kg over the weight limit for his current karting class, Dominic’s physical prowess presents challenges—yet even with this disadvantage, he continues to outperform more experienced drivers.

His neurodiversity has further shaped Dominic into the resilient, strategic, and driven athlete he is today. Where others might see challenges, Dominic sees opportunities, and his unique way of thinking allows him to approach racing with creativity, problem-solving skills, and nerves of steel.

Dominic has been home educated for the past seven years, a path that has instilled in him unmatched self-motivation, organization, and discipline. He operates at an advanced level in mathematics and engineering for his age, and his inquisitive mind continually pushes him to refine his understanding of racing mechanics and strategies. This intellectual edge translates into his ability to quickly learn and adapt


My Achievements

In his debut season in 2024, Dominic has exceeded expectations with remarkable achievements:

*The Kart Championship: first big national race, Dominic achieved an incredible comeback drive after a mechanical failure in qualifying meant starting at the back of the grid. With the least amount of track experience on the grid and a P18 start on the first two heats, went on to achieve a remarkable P2 finish in the superheat and P4 in the final securing his first podium and trophy in his rookie year. 
 
​•​Scottish Championships Success: Competing against seasoned drivers with 3 to 7 years of experience, Dominic finished an outstanding 12th place in the entire country. Despite his relative inexperience, he was on track for a Top 10 finish until a mechanical failure in the final round lost him crucial points. This performance shows his natural ability to compete at the highest level and demonstrates that with continued development, he will soon be a dominant force in the sport.
 
​•​Club Championships: Throughout the season, Dominic’s fearless racing style and competitive edge set him apart. Even in the face of a serious accident, where he was thrown from his kart, Dominic’s immediate instinct was to get back in and continue racing, showing both his resilience and unshakeable determination.
