Very impressed with this guy. He's never been to America before and over the last couple of weeks he makes the WoO Dash nearly every night. They run almost all short tracks in Australia, so he is getting on the big half miles for the first time and he's in the hunt every night with the best in the business. First time at Knoxville tonight and he looks like he's raced there several seasons. We all know Knoxville can make short trackers look foolish. Very impressive! 2012 Knoxville Nationals Rookie of the Year.

I was impressed as well. I actually thought it was Trey Starks, a really talented young driver from out west, till later in the night. Great job James!

Yes he is a very talented young racer ,not only a racer he is also an sprintcar engine builder and builds many of the top Australian sprintcar engines, and his own engines in Australia.
Dose any one have any photos of car?
Could be Nationals Rookie of the year.
Go J Mac

I was impressed by him at I-55. He was hammerdown the whole night and was on the front row of the 55 laps a-main alongside Kerry Madsen. Wish the bad weather would've stayed away. James possibly could be $20,000 richer.

No doubt he's a talent, can't wait to see him at Nationals. Australia has some hidden talents, they sent over Darren Mollenoyux for PA Speedweek and he was impressive as well.

Was I the only one that was impressed by this guy all week? He got everything he could get out of that car.

I as well was impressed, seen he had been running up front with the WoO but figure he wouldstruggle at the ville having no laps or experience on a big half mile but he looked like he had been running there all season, great run J-Mac!

Very impressive for his first time at Kville. I didn't spend a lot of time watching him specifically, but he always seemed to be in the picture when he was on the track. Hope he comes back next year!
