Next up in the Driver Spotlight series is the man behind the wheel of arguably the brightest car on the 2022 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship grid, Rick Parfitt.
Having switched to the Uptonsteel with Euro Car Parts Infiniti Q50 ahead of the campaign, Parfitt was keen to utilise his rear-wheel drive experience in 2022, but was unable to prove his prowess in the Team HARD-run machine.
Fulfilling both his passions in one afternoon, a busy Saturday in Hampshire saw the Rock & Racer go from qualifying at the UK's fastest circuit – Thruxton – to opening the main stage at CarFest less than an hour later!
