THRUST >>> DRIVERS

Grant B.
Owner/Driver
A South African native, Grant dreamed of racing since boyhood but girls, BMX and surfing always seemed to get in the way. He got his start in 2005 driving Rally Cross in a $200 85 Honda Prelude "side of the road special" which was caged and flogged hard until it quit; Then upgrading to a full stage rally prepped 91 Audi Quattro S2 coupe. After the SCCA canceled the rally program in 2005 he set his sights on road course racing. He began his SCCA club racing career in 2006 with a false start due to an unrelaible car but finally got cracking in the 2010 season. While loving the road courses his heart still remains in the gravel. One of his major aspirations this lifetime is to complete the 3000+ mile Paris to Dakar Rally.

Doug K.
Crew Chief/Co-Driver
Doug has been racing most anything with four wheels since he was a young 'un. From sand rails, to circle track stock cars, to vintage racers, to figure-8 school buses. Yes, you did read that right: figure 8 school buses...youch! A talented mechanic, he puts his heart and soul - and often bloody knuckles - into the machinery whenever he's not in the driver's seat.
