Dan has been actively involved in Rallying/Motorsport since 2007, where aged 13 he could be found Marshalling on many Clubman and National events .. plus the odd International when he could.
2017 was when Dan was finally able to make his debut as a Rally Co-driver, co-driving for Daniel Bowen in a Subaru Impreza on the Peter Lloyd Stages.
Since then Dan has co-driven on over 40 events and is now seen as one of the top co-drivers in the UK, most recently co-driving for Ex ERC Champion Chris Ingram on a Pre-Event Test.
2024 sees Dan competing in the Welsh Tarmac Rally Championship alongside David Chislett in his beautiful Porsche, alongside various other drivers on different events, continuing to build his experience.
