Race car drivers compete for myriad reasons, but they are all driven by the desire to win. It is this blind hunger for success which drives them to push that much harder and demand from their at times, uncooperative machines, performance the race car did not dream possible.
Andre Anderson, however, has an advantage. He is a trained automotive engineer and as such he is equipped with the skill set required to build the monster he unleashes, each time he visits a race track. The year 2010 will always have a special place in his memory. He had a very successful circuit racing season.
