DORSET driver Dan Mackintosh is set for his biggest motorsport challenge yet when he competes in Euro NASCAR’s American Speedfest next month.

Rampisham star Mackintosh has received an invite to race in the British round of the series, taking place at Brands Hatch in Kent on Saturday, June 17 and Sunday, June 18.

The 19-year-old is one of Britain’s top young drivers and has previously raced in the Porsche Challenge Cup and Carl Hamer Trophy among others.

NASCAR is one of the most popular forms of motorsport in the world and attracts huge audiences, particularly in the United States.

With an action-packed event it is a serious test for drivers, teams and cars alike.

Jacques Villeneuve, 1997 F1 world champion, was among the famous names to race in NASCAR’s fabled Sprint Cup last season.

However, Mackintosh is in need of sponsorship for the event.
