Why/how you got into racing: In support of my father Terry Robertson getting Formula-R off the ground.
Got seriously involved and enthused with the opportunity to compete in a national
series coutesy of AMRS and Rod Dale.

Plans for 2008: Huge amount of work on my current chassis (Sirch 297) to iron out all the
handling issues for a more competitive effort. Seeing Club F3 grow into a
fully fledged open wheel "wings and slick's" category consistently fielding 10 cars.

Your team and who makes it all possible: I drive and work for Robertson Motor Sport. My father has made it possible for me to be involved and contribute to the team.
