John Prefontaine
Originally starting in hill climb club events in 2009, John then transitioned to Production Sports Cars in Lotus. On his debut at the 2014 Wakefield 300 endurance race, John secured an impressive second place alongside Rob Hackwood. Twenty Eighteen saw John emerge as the winner of the 2B class in the QLD Prodsports whilst driving a Lotus Exige.
In the same year, John participated in a round of Trans Am and achieved great success, winning the 5l class for the round in every race. Throughout his racing career, John has taken on various co-driving opportunities and competed nationally on numerous occasions. After a brake failure incident at QR in 2019, John is thrilled to be back in a race car, rekindling his passion for racing and enjoying the camaraderie both on and off the track. He feels privileged having this opportunity, courtesy of his father.
