TESTIMONIALS
We brought about 25 of our customers and distributors out to Mosport to spend the day at one of Andy Brumbaugh’s races. Without exception everyone had a great time. Many had never been to a professional auto race before. It was a very exciting, dynamic environment. Having the opportunity to see the team and car up close and to meet the driver was a real plus. I personally really like golf. However, I have to admit the day at the race track was even more effective for really talking to and getting to know the customers and what opportunities may be available to us.
Ted Becker, former sponsor
“I owned a professional racing team for many years. We always ran at the sharp end of the field in the US FF2000 series and won many races. Andy joined us as a young 17 year old, with no pro racing experience, and was phenomenal in the hugely competitive Canadian Formula Ford Championship. He gave our team our first championship, a dream come true. He just got after it from day one, delivering poles and race wins. Andy became the youngest driver and only American to ever win this championship.”
Steve Djelebian, Key Motorsports
“I have been racing Porsche Club of America events for some time now. I decided to retain Andy as a driver coach and have been delighted with the results. With Andy’s driving abilities, data analysis skills and positive encouraging coaching style I have dropped seconds per lap at every track we have gone to. I am now winning races and couldn’t be happier.”
Steve Robertson, Porsche GT3 PCA competitor
“Having raced FF in SCCA for awhile I wanted to step up and asked Andy to help. Andy’s speed, style and set-up knowledge helped me become competitive in SCCA Nationals and we competed at the SCCA Runoffs together.”
Tom Reinsel, SCCA FF competitor
“Porsche decided it would be good to have a young American driver on our UPS Porsche Junior team. We obviously scouted many many talented young drivers throughout the U.S.A. We finally narrowed our search to two drivers, Patrick Long and Andy Brumbaugh. We flew both drivers to Germany to tour our factory and test at our new track in Leipzig. There was very little to choose between the two drivers in terms of on track performance. With Patrick being older, having prior sports car experience and having already lived in Europe we made him our choice. Andy, I am certain, would have been an excellent driver for us as well.”
Uwe Brettel, President, Porsche Motorsports North America
“Andy’s pace is right on the money and he has an accurate understanding of what the racecar is doing” Charles Espenlaub, former teammate
“One (Andy) of the best damn road racers you will ever meet”
Joe Scarborough, former teammate
“I am excited and pleased that Andy is joining the team for the Sahlens 6 hours of the Glen. We have been friends and co-workers for a while and I think that this is a great opportunity for both of us. I believe in his talent and feel that he will be a real asset to the team”
Chris Mitchum, Mitchum Motorsports owner
“I met Andy when I was competing in SCCA club races. I was amazed at how fast this young kid was wherever we went. I decided to move up to pro racing in the FF2000 Zetec Championship and asked Andy to help me. With the backing I was able to generate Andy, as Team Manager, created a professional race team from scratch. Andy developed the procedures; identified all the equipment, tools and spares required; developed a test plan as well as a media plan and had us on the grid in time for Sebring. Andy was the team’s driver coach and data acquisition guy. We took the team Andy created and went on to win the championship in our third season against much bigger, more established and better funded teams. I accomplished my goal. Thanks, Andy.”
Marshall Aiken, Aiken Racing
“I hired Andy as my mechanic and driver coach first with my Mazda IT-7 and then when I moved up to the CFC class in SCCA. With Andy my driving and set-ups improved dramatically. I ended up winning races, setting lap records and, ultimately, winning ARRC in CFC. I was then ready and did move up into Pro racing and competed in Pro Formula Mazda for some time.”
