Winning the Tony Quinn Foundation Toyota GR86 shoot out recently should help 17 year old Christchurch Boys College racer Chris White get one step closer to his dream of racing in Supercars.
Thanks to his win in the shoot-out White is making the step up to the Bridgestone GR86 Championship.
Chris – who will join highly-regarded James Marshall Motorsport for the first ever GR86 Championship - is already on the national motorsport radar as one of the country’s best young prospects having started karting aged just nine where he competed with distinction.
A leading contender in South Island and National Championships throughout his time in karting, he won the Kartsport South Island Sprint Championship for Junior Rotax machines in 2020. He progressed to cars only a season ago but carried on winning races, securing the South Island Mazda Series and national Mazda racing titles last season.
