Nitrous Competitions ADM Racing’s Junior Academy member Archie Pearce will make his GB4 debut with the team at the Snetterton Winter Series on 24/25 October.
The 17-year-old has been firmly embedded within the team since being announced as its first Academy member earlier in the year. Since then he’s attended several race events as he prepares to step up from karting, taking part in the valuable behind the scenes activities which form a driver’s schedule while racing, while also getting to know the team’s personnel.
He’s also commenced a busy testing programme, starting with an initial test at Bedford Autodrome in July.
Since then, preparations have ramped up further with tests in Wales, and just this week, has participated in multiple days with the team at Anglesey and Pembrey.
Archie has also remained in karting this year, keeping race sharp with appearances in Club 100 and the FAT Karting League, in which he finished eighth overall in class during his debut karting campaign in 2025.
Archie Pearce: “I’m so excited to finally go racing at Snetterton in October. Joining the GB4 Winter Series is what I've been training for, and I'm confident that with the team's continued advice and support, I can progress through this next exciting step in my career. Testing has gone well so far, it’s a big jump from karting, but Gary and all the team are super supportive and that just makes me feel more determined to go out and do my best in a few weeks’ time.”
Team Principal Gary Ward: “It’s always been our intention to have Archie amongst our Winter Series line-up, and he’s justified our faith in him with his attitude and work rate with us this year. He’s adapted well to single-seaters in the testing we’ve done so far, and there’s a lot of promise for us to build on over the next few weeks as we get set for his car racing debut. There’s no pressure on him, this is an ongoing project for us all, and I’m sure a positive run at Snetterton will give us plenty more to build on as we aim to continue together next year.”
Team Co-owner David Williams: “We’re looking forward to seeing what Archie can achieve with us at Snetterton. It’s always an exciting moment to see a young racer make the move from karting into cars for the first time, and we’re hoping Archie will be the first of many to make that jump with us. We love working with him, and we’re sure he’ll do himself proud in October.”
