In September 2010, we were fortunate to put a last minute deal together to run Elliot in one of our Mini Challenge cars at the V8 Supercar Enduro support at Phillip Island. This was Elliot's first race in Mini Challenge and he started the weekend without testing. Our crew was highly impressed with his approach, attitude and speed. Despite the fact he was responsible for any damage to the car he was able to still drive with enough aggression to finish as high as 2nd against highly experienced competition. He was also skilful, smart and restrained enough to keep the car completely unmarked despite treacherous conditions. Elliot finished the weekend on the podium with 3rd outright on debut in the championship. I wish him luck and hope to work with him again in the future.

Elliot is a rapid learner; his knowledge of the mechanical workings of a car is quite advanced for someone so young. He will drive the wheels off it, but will not do anything super silly and will try and bring it home in one piece. The Merc-Bits team helped Elliot on his step up in Motor Sport from Karting to cars. We put him in a HQ Holden, probably not the given choice of a prospective world champion, but one of the hardest classes in Australia to be neat, quick and clean, and an excellent learning curve for a young driver. As a young bloke, he is polite and, my wife Sue and I are proud to be associated with Elliot.
