Drivers

Tim Fox:

Dr. Tim Fox started racing in 2008, driving an Aston Martin Vantage N24. His early racing included SCCA and NASA competition. In 2011, Fox drove his way to a championship in the inaugural Intercontinental Trophy Cup Racing Series. When he advanced to professional racing, driving an Aston Martin Vantage GT4 was an easy choice: even Fox’s street car is a Vanquish S. In addition to racing, Fox is a Board Certified Geriatric Clinical Specialist and the Founder and CEO of Fox Rehabilitation.

Kris Wilson:

Kris Wilson has done just about everything there is to do in racing. He started as a mechanic for a professional team, but the desire to be behind the wheel himself got him on the track. He holds rookie of the year honors in Formula Mazda, US FF2000 and Firestone Firehawk, the predecessor of GRAND-AM Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge. Wilson has competed in the Rolex Series, ALMS and World Challenge. The Littleton, Colorado, resident is a longtime racing instructor and coach, as well.
