About Richard

Who I Am & Why I Race

I discovered my love for karting at a young age in Romania, but my true racing journey began when I moved to Ireland in 2021. What started as casual laps at Rivervalley Karting quickly became my passion.

Today, I compete in the Tillotson Junior Championship and am a proud member of the Wexford Motor Club Youth Academy and the PBR Racing Team under the guidance of Calvin Pratt.

Karting has shaped me into a disciplined, focused, and determined racer. With weekly training sessions and a commitment to continuous improvement, I push myself to be faster and better with every lap.

I am incredibly passionate (some would say obsessed 😛) about F1 – the best conversation starter for me is a quiz about any race or any driver since 1955 to present day. Also, I’m a quite skillful driver on Playstation F1 – 2013 to 2024. Top 5% in the world on Monaco and top 7% on Baku. Add me on Snapchat and let’s race together.

Karting Journey

From my first laps at Rivervalley to racing in the Tillotson Junior Championship, every track, race, and challenge has shaped me into the driver I am today.

The tracks I drove on

Karting is all about adapting to different tracks, each with unique challenges. From tight technical turns to high-speed straights, every circuit has helped me refine my skills and race strategy.

Start Karting in Ireland

Want to get your child into karting?  Whether it’s for fun or future championships, this guide covers everything—from finding local tracks to joining a racing team. Let’s get started!

How to Start Karting in Ireland – A Guide for Parents

Getting Started: Visit a local circuit and try it out!

Depending on your child's age and skill, you could start at Rivervalley electric go karts track or on Kiltorcan Raceway. Go there several times, on different weather, days of the week and time of the day. See how it feels. If you and your kid don't get bored after 10 visits or more, it means you're ready for the next level.

Wexford Motorclub Youth Academy: Train with the best!

I was lucky enough to book a spot for 2025 and I could not be more grateful - It is an incredible useful experience - totally recommend it!

The T4 experience at Kiltorcan Raceway

Before committing to invest time and money into this passion, I strongly recommend booking the T4 Experience at Kiltorcan Raceway. It includes a professional evaluation of your kid’s driving skills across three different karts: a rental kart, a two-wheel kart, and a T4.

I was lucky enough to go through this experience under the incredibly competent guidance of Calvin Pratt – former T4 Senior Champion and now the driving force behind Pratt Brothers Racing.

Joining a Racing Team – PBR is the Best (but Choose What Fits You Best 🙂)

My team’s motto – Greater Than One – says it all. Even if it feels like you’re alone behind the wheel, motorsport is a team sport through and through. You can’t do it on your own.

Find a team that supports you, where you can also bring value. It’ll give you both purpose and the strength to keep pushing forward.

Racing Is Expensive – But Dreams Are Priceless

Motorsport is one of the most expensive sports, and I couldn’t do it without the support of my family, first sponsors (BusinessLeague.com & 2Performant.com), and my incredible community.
