Profile:
Ant Whorton-Eales primarily competes in touring car racing, with successes achieved in the Renault Clio Cup UK as well as the Mini Challenge Great Britain. He first joined AmD Tuning when he competed full-time in BTCC for the 2017 season, although Ant achieved little success and eventually downscaled his BTCC campaign to a part-time effort in 2018.
This year, Ant will be making a switch to stock car racing after AmD Tuning signed a partnership deal with Racing-Total to run the No. 46 AmD Tuning / Cobra Exhaust Ford Mustang for Racing-Total AmD Tuning. A mid-season change of ownership wouldn’t affect neither Ant nor his Elite 2 teammate – and AmD Tuning boss – Shaun Hollamby as they will remain in the No. 46 seat, albeit now for Marko Stipp Motorsport AmD Tuning instead of Racing-Total AmD Tuning.
