Personal Profile





Anthony Dunn is 33 years old and lives in Woodham, County Durham with his girlfriend, 3 times British Monoposto Champion Amanda Whitaker (www.AmandaWhitaker.com). He is a professional Performance Driving Instructor and part-time racing driver. Although he has a amiable personality,
underneath this lies his fierce determination in the competitive world of motor racing.

Motor Racing Career Summary

Anthony began motor sport at the relatively late age of 18 when he started Kart Racing.
In just 3 years he had won a multitude of events including two National Championship rounds and 3 Regional titles winning 7 out of 8 races in his district in 1995.

In 1996 he graduated to single seater car racing. Following two years of Formula Vauxhall Junior, 1998 saw him moving up to compete in BARC Formula Renault and turn fully professional as a Performance Driving Instructor at Silverstone Circuit.

4 wins and 6 podium positions capped his most successful year to date, finishing second in the championship against more experienced opposition despite missing one of the races.

Anthony had to take a sabbatical from racing in 1999 due to lack of funds, although he continued to develop his motor sport experience & knowledge as he joined Ferrari UK as an instructor and continued his work at Silverstone and for an increasing number of clients.

In 2000, he kept his competitive instincts sharp by kart racing and turned in some impressive results. His persistence paid off as he was called up in a last minute deal to race in the Nurburgring 24 race around the original 14 mile Grand Prix Circuit in a Caterham Superlight sports car alongside Caterham Sportscar aces Rob Garofall and Robin Liddell. Despite leading their class in the event, they eventually were forced to retire from the race with a blown engine.

He finished the year by once again competing in the Dubai 24 hour kart race against the worlds top karters and celebrity drivers.

2001 led to a drive in the 'Radical' sports car series, partnering James Pickford and Matthew van Gessel. The season was cut short due to budget contraints, but this didn't stop them from being from runners.

2002 saw Anthony focus his efforts on developing further his performance driving tuition career and start his private tuition project 'IWannaGoFaster.com'.

2003 saw him back in the saddle partnering one of his Personal Tuition clients Andrew Stevens in a BMW M3 in the European Endurance Racing Championship Britcar. A stunning saloon car debut at Donington saw Anthony qualify the Group N specification car on class Pole Position and third overall - just behind a Ferrari 355 & Multiple British Touring Car Champion Andy Rouse's monster Mercedes 190 (an ex-DTM German Touring car)! The pair finished a creditable 2nd in class on their debut despite braking problems in the 100 minute race.

2006 saw him return to the Radical Enduro Sportcar series sharing with a client Barry Gates, who he coaches through his IWannaGoFaster.com website. He was immediately on the pace, qualifying on the front row of the grid and setting a new lap record in his first race in 4 years!

2007 saw him return for a full season of the championship and back to the winners circle when the pair won the first race of the year at Snetterton and finished their campaign as Radical Enduro SR3 British Champions!
