BIO
James comes from a strong Motorsports background with both his father and uncle being rallying legends in Ireland in the 80’s. His brother Mike was one of the first to win a drifting competition in Ireland back in 2003 when James was only 12 years old. From this day on James was obsessed with being a drifter. In 2006 his brothers Mike and Kenneth entered him into Junior drifting in a Ford Sierra. He finished 3rd. Then James and his family went on and bought his current Silvia, which was fairly standard at the time. In Prodift Round 2-2007 at Rosegreen in Tipperary, Ireland, James managed to see off all the more experienced drivers and won the event at 15 years old. As far as we are aware, he is the youngest driver in the world to win a drift competition. He was later placed 9th overall for the 2007 season and was awarded the title of rookie of the year 2007. James is definitely has the potential to hit it big in 2009.
A Word from the Developers
The internet is a varied and full place. It is full of good website and bad ones. It is full of legitmate undertakings and suspect ones. It is the easiest place to market yourself and the toughest to gain a foothold. But one thing is constant when it comes to the web, you have to give people something or else you have lost them.
A Word from the Creative Director
As the owner of a small boutique Brand studio and Creative Director of NEXEN Tire America’s reBrand, you’re probably wondering why I would be one of the first people to post on the site. Good question! Actually it’s because I wanted everyone to know about my experience working with NEXEN. I’ve worked for a lot of companies who talk about “strengthening their brand” but what this usually ONLY means is that they want to “strengthen their bottom line.” So let’s just say it was such a smack-in-the-face, refreshing change to work with a team that meant what they said and said what they meant. After dutifully quizzing them about their thoughts on strategies for positioning, corporate messaging and all the other things that go along with rebranding, they surprised me with a simple response. “We’re about kindness,” they said.
