After a brief
return to modified production saloons, Andy was back in
a sapphire Cosworth for the 1992 BARC Production Car Series
and by the end of the season he was a regular top three
finisher. This momentum was maintained during 1994 in a
completely rebuilt car and front row qualifying in most
rounds was rewarded with a second place finish in the Class
A Championship.
In 1995 Andy switched to Escort Cosworths prepared by Benfield
Motorsport and turned in some impressive victories alongside
team-mate and brother, Gary. The season culminated in Andy
winning the Production Saloon Championship.
During 1996, Andy moved into the fast and furious world
of TVR Tuscan racing. Impressing many big-budget operations
along the way with some very creditable performances, including
an outright win at Oulton Park.
2001 was Andy’s fourth in Tuscans and with 8 wins,
4 fastest laps and 3 Pole positions giving him 2nd Place
in the Championships, his best Tuscan season ever.
Andy also won the Donington Park Racing Association Trophy
which has many prestige drivers on its nameplace.
A new car for the 2002 Tuscan Challenge brought mixed fortunes
and by the time the car was sorted it was too late and
a brace of second places and some regular top six finishes
resulted in 5th overall at the season end.
In 2003, Andy moved to the Porsche Carrera Cup and finished
6th overall. The team was run by Vic Lee and VLR
In 2004 Andy continued to race his Porsche in the Porsche
Carrera Cup. The car was being run by Motorbase Performance,
under the
experienced
eye of David Bartrum and finished 6th overall.
2005 sees Andy, once again racing under the flag of Motorbase
Performance, take on the world's noisiest, fastest and
most dramatic cars in the British GT3 competition.
Andy will also be running in the Porsche Carrera Cup at the Brands Hatch rounds.
During 2006 Andy took a year out to focus on new business developments, although he did compete in the final round of the Carrera Cup at Silverstone finishing 4th in the pro-am category. |
