ABOUT

HISTORY

Will was brought up surrounded by Motorsport and vehicles, creating an ambition to be a professional in the sport. Following national and international karting success, his racing car career was then developed in touring cars, and resulted in racing New Zealand's premier championship, V8Supertourers.

 

To make a serious racing career step, he moved to Asia in 2015 after completing a degree in Industrial Design, and years of experience as a driver instructor to support his personal ambition as a professional driver.

From 2015 to 2019 Will was based in Malaysia, where he raced across the region, accomplishing numerous victories and championship accolades including wins and titles in Porsche Carrera Cup and China GT

 

During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, Asia closed their motorsport and country boarders causing Will to relocated to the United States to explore new opportunities as a professional driver.
