Tyler McQuarrie

Racing is my life! I started racing karts when I was 14 and moved up to formula cars a few years later. I went on to win two championships in the states. I spent a season racing Formula Vauxhall in Europe and returned to the states to run in the USF2000 Series. I then decided to make the move to sports cars and raced Porsche's in the American Le Mans series. That led me into NASCAR Southwest Tour, Sprint cars, Touring cars and Drifting. I've been an instructor at Jim Russell Racing School since 1997. I have coached thousands of drivers and many pro drivers like: Bill Elliott, Scott Speed, Regan Smith and Scott Riggs to name a few. In 2012 I made the move and became an Owner/ Driver of my own team in Formula Drift. It is a lot more work but well worth it! In 2013 I will add a second Camaro to our team with JR Hildebrand at the wheel for select events.
