One young Kiwi racer is living his dream.  

18-year-old Tom Bewley competed for the first time in the Porsche GT3 Sprint Challenge Series in Australia, finishing third with four season wins and a couple of lap records. 

As a result, he’s won the Porsche scholarship to take the next step and will compete in the Carrera Cup next year. 

“It was an up and down year, definitely,” Bewley told Mike Hosking. 

“My goal going into the year was just to learn how to drive that style of car because it was something completely different to what I’ve been used to.” 

“I feel like I did that pretty quick, but just some rough patches during the season kind of cost me those championship points,” he said. 

“Overall, I think I was pretty happy with the season.”
