Description

We will be talking to David about his motor racing career, and his current venture building the fiery Brabham BT62 

We’ll find out just what it takes to win in the heat of endurance racing and how that has shaped the evolution of Brabham Automotive.

David’s passion for racing was ignited at the relatively late age of 17 after seeing a go-kart during a US factory visit with his Indy Car racing brother, Geoff. 

From 1982, David regularly won kart races in a cheap, second-hand kart. He later progressed to the new Ford Laser series, and from there onto single-seaters and eventually winning the 1987 F2 Gold Star. 

After making a move to Britain he had much success in F3 racing, with the inevitable jump to a short but interesting stint with Formula 1. Then finally, endurance racing and even more glory. 

His honour roll of racing victories is long and includes

·         Spa 24-Hour race 

·         Bathurst 1000

·         American Le Mans Series 

·         12 hours of Seabring

·         And three times winner of the gruelling 24 hours of Le mans

 

Just like his world champion father before him, the late Sir Jack Brabham, David now builds his own racing and road-going supercars.
