2006 seen Nathan move to the SEMRC championship in both 4.2 and production class, his first outing of the year seen him finish an incredible 2nd and 3rd on the day respectively. Nathan finished the season off with a fantastic 2 place in the production class and 3rd in the 4.2.

2007, saw Nathan on the move again, this time to the MMRA British championship, where he was with a partly sponsored team Racetech ride on the all new British built RT2, finishing the season off with a 4th place over all.

2008 and Nathan’s on the move again, this time with Fab racing, in the Metrakit GP50 class…..so far he’s had 2 hours on the bike, bearing in mind Nathan has had to learn how to use a gear box and clutch for the first time, and things are looking very promising. Nathan ended up wining 26 out of 27 races he raced in taking the 2008 british MiniGP 50 title

2009 Nathan moves up to the more powerful GP70…once again after a hard fight Nathan took the British MiniGP championship for a second year in a row.

2010 this year things are going to get exciting. Nathan will be racing a Metrakit 80 full size bike with the MRO in the new 80 superteens class……watch this space
