Vantage Racing

Tom Black is the founder and owner of Vantage Racing. He came to motorsport relatively late, obtaining his race licence only in 2008 and soon after teamed up with Steve Hay (Chief Engineer) and racing legend Hugh Chamberlain to get Vantage Racing off the ground. He believes very strongly in keeping amateur racing for amateurs and has always been partnered by other amateur drivers in this series, this year he is partnered by Chris Kemp. He regards racing as a means of unwinding and indulging his love of fast cars.

Team Highlights:

During his short career Tom Black learned his race craft with the Aston Martin Owner's Club and then stepped up to participate in all three years of the Aston Martin Racing's GT4 Challenge, coming second in 2011 partnered by Alan Bonner. He has occasionally stepped up to more serious racing, taking part in several rounds of the pro-am British GT in the GT3 DBRS9 with Stuart Hall in 2011, and achieving respectable finishes in most races.
