Fred is a crazy and talented fellow.

I was lucky enough to have a ride in his van when he visited the APEX festival in May 2013.

I can honestly say it was the quickest vehicle I have been around any circuit, the accelartion was impressive but really got to me (and my shoulders) was the EPIC braking force, he is a proper racing driver that drives like a HERO!

Hi

Have you noticed the Shane Warn doll on the dash in some videos, I met Fred when he was in Australia learning English, top bloke.
