Mark Cripps

Biography

I started out in Forza 7 that came free with an Xbox One X that my wife bought me for Christmas in 2017. At the end of yet another race at VIR a guy mentioned that it was not a patch on iRacing. A long conversation then happened with me grilling the guy for over an hour as I had never heard of iRacing.

My interest was piqued so I investigated more and, to cut a long story short, within a month I was the proud owner of my first wheel and pedal set bought directly from Fanatec. Ever since then it has been a steep learning curve (mostly due to my age - I'm old!) but a brilliant learning curve all the same.

I started to watch more streams in search of learning how to be better and found myself thinking one day, how hard can it be? Uhhh yeah, the first few months of streaming I was literally talking to myself. Then one day my luck changed. A streamer I watched a lot raided me and ever since then I have been lucky to grow my channel and get a regular bunch of viewers.

That luck also converted into me being able to join a team I had wanted to join because one of my most prized viewers drove for them, he has helped me enormously and to put the icing on the cake after a long chat with Jason and Chris I was fortunate enough to get into the awesome team that is Prestanda NOMAD. I look forward to many fun (and learning) times.
