MEET NICK
Nationality: Australian
Home Town: Brisbane
Nick is an FIA Gold graded professional development and performance driver working alongside OEM and motorsport engineering teams on vehicle dynamics, simulator correlation, tyre behaviour, and control system evaluation, including current work supporting Formula 1 development programmes.
With over 15 years competing at the highest level of international endurance and GT racing — including the 24 Hours of Le Mans, FIA World Endurance Championship, Intercontinental GT Challenge, and Nürburgring Endurance Series — Nick remains an active professional racing driver while contributing directly to vehicle development activities.
A Porsche Carrera Cup Australia Champion, GT World Challenge Champion and Vice-Champion, Asian Le Mans Series Vice-Champion, and multiple race winner and podium finisher across international GT and endurance competition, Nick’s experience operating at the limit forms the foundation of his development work.
Nick supports simulator and vehicle dynamics programmes, alongside OEM vehicle testing, validation, and performance work. His focus is translating how a car behaves at the limit into clear, usable feedback for engineers across steering, braking, stability systems, hybrid deployment, aero balance, and tyre performance.
Alongside development work, Nick continues to compete internationally while supporting prototype testing, tyre development programmes, and factory and customer development activities worldwide.

COACHING AND TUITION AVAILABLE
Nick offers private coaching and driver development for racing drivers, track day drivers, and performance car owners looking to improve car control, consistency, and understanding of vehicle behaviour at the limit.
His approach is built on the same methods used in professional vehicle development and simulator programmes — focusing not just on lap time, but on understanding steering input, brake application, balance, tyre behaviour, and how stability systems and setup influence driver confidence and performance.
Sessions are tailored to the individual and can include circuit driving, simulator work, data review, and structured feedback designed to give drivers a clearer understanding of how to work with the car rather than against it.
Nick works with drivers at all levels, from enthusiasts to professional racers, helping them develop repeatable techniques and a deeper understanding of vehicle dynamics that translates directly to improved pace and control.
Coaching is available internationally by arrangement.
