Matt and Dwayne Carter both started motorsport at a young age racing karts up until their late teens. From there Matt ran a 1600cc Nissan Sentra in the Nissan Sentra GT championship then had no involvement in motorsport for about 10 years until purchasing an ex Brad Jones AU Falcon supercar which we ran successfully for 3 years. We then sold the AU and purchased our current BF falcon off PCR winning numerous Endurance titles together.
