Born to Drive

This didn't start on a starting grid.

Max has been behind a wheel since before he could reach the pedals. What started as a toddler on a toy tractor has turned into real circuit racing — and a serious shot at karting's affordable route to motorsport.

Every birthday, every family day out — it always came back to karts.

Second place. First day in an owner kart.

In his very first owner-kart outing, Max took the final race of the day at Wombwell Karting — an officially recorded result, not a practice session. It's the kind of debut that tells you where the ceiling might be.

The Plan

Two phases. One clear route to GX-UK.

This isn't an open-ended ask — it's a specific, staged plan for where the funding goes and what it unlocks next.

01

Kit & Rookie Racing Track Days

Properly fitted racing kit so Max can perform at his best, plus more time on track with Rookie Racing to build race experience and start building a network within the karting community.

  • Correctly fitted racing suit, boots, gloves and helmet
  • Additional rookie race-day track time
  • Coaching and race-craft development
£1,600
Funding Target
02

GX-UK Kart & Trailer

The step up to full competition: a GX-UK kart and trailer of his own, so Max can enter the GX-UK Junior Championship — the affordable route into serious owner-driver karting.

  • GX-UK-spec competition kart and trailer
  • GX-UK Junior Championship race entries
£5,000

Where Your Logo Goes

Max designed this himself.

To show exactly how sponsor branding would look on race day, Max put together his own concept design for his suit and helmet, marking out where logos could sit.

⚠ Please note: these are Max's own initial concept sketches, made to demonstrate his drive and help visualise sponsor placement. They are examples only — the final suit and helmet design may differ once produced.

🎯 Phase 1 Ask — Founding Partners Only
Become a Founding Partner

Three partners. One clear goal.

Founding Partner isn't a title you can buy again later. Right now Max is unknown, unsigned and entirely self-funded — which means this is the one moment a business can back him before there's a following, a result sheet, or a queue of other sponsors. If he goes on to make a career of this, you'll be the ones who were there first.
