Hollywood Hits Asia IAME Series

Australia will have a Masters driver at the third round of the INF1NITY IAME Series Asia this weekend.

Melbourne’s Darren Formosa will drive with the Fireball Motorsport team on Kart Republic chassis, using his own engines. He’ll also utilise his local ‘Team Hollywood’ mechanic with sponsor Panduit.

Darren Formosa, the man called Hollywood, has been racing karts since the mid-eighties, photographed here at his local circuit, Todd Rd.

The round is on the spectacular LYL International Karting Circuit, Malaysia, a large and complex 1.5km 23-corner configuration with a bridge and elevation changes.

Formosa joins a bunch of other Australians who are contesting the round with Birelart Racing Asia – Ky Burke and Cooper Fysh in Senior X30, Jay Kostecki, Jackson Wood and George Patrizi in Cadet, plus Jack Larsen in Junior X30.
