Kiwi Liam Sceats is aiming squarely at a title challenge in the forthcoming 2024 Castrol Toyota Formula Regional Oceania Championship.
The 18 year old Aucklander impressed in his first season of the Formula Regional championship earlier this year and has maintained strong form throughout the year – winning three races to finish runner-up in the Japanese Formula Regional Championship.
Back with M2 Compeition for 2024, Sceats is confident of making a strong showing when the international championship begins at Taupo Motorsport Park next month.
“I’m very excited to have the opportunity to work with M2 Competition for my second season in CTFROC to kick off 2024,” he said.
“Having the experience of a season in the Castrol Toyota Formula Regional Oceania Championship and the Formula Regional Japanese Championship under my belt, I feel like I am a much more complete driver.
“My sights are firmly set on competing for wins and podiums as a championship title contender in the 2024 Castrol Toyota Formula Regional Oceania Championship right from the opening round at Taupo Motorsport Park."
Armed with extensive circuit knowledge, the youngster made the big jump up from Formula Ford for the 2023 CTFROC championship, but quickly established himself as a top five runner with impressive race performances that netted three podium finishes during the course of the season.
Sceats recently secured the TQ Foundation $70,000 prize to go towards his upcoming season in New Zealand, proving he is one of the best of the next generation of single seater racers to emerge from the country’s seemingly endless ability to produce world class motorsport talent.
