TEAM BACKGROUND
Next-Gen was founded in November 2011 by David Bellchambers. David previously raced karts and was a British, European and world beater, finishing 4th in the 2005 World Championships, becoming Kartmasters GP Double Champion and a Multiple British Championship event victor.
David quickly realised he could pass down his skills and speed with the great connection he develops with his drivers, this unique bond has created some of the most successful cadet drivers of previous years.
David has worked closely with British ,European and world champions such as Connor Hall, Enaam Ahmed, Jamie Caroline, Oliver York, Kiern Jewiss, Teddy Wilson and Tom Canning.
Next-Gen quickly rose through the ranks, even as a new team, winning at Super One level in its first year with Elliot Harvey.
Next-Gen went on to claim a British title in its second year with Kiern Jewiss along with many more Super One and LGM victories.
More success followed in the third year with victories in Super One and LGM.
A new direction for 2015 saw Next-Gen merge with Eclipse, where Next-Gen nearly took Dragan Pinsent to the Honda Cadet British Championship Title.
Onwards into 2016, we are delighted to announce that Next-Gen Motorsport are back and we will be bigger, better and more determined than ever for 2016.
DRIVER DEVELOPMENT
All drivers will benefit from Driver Development and Coaching on a one-2-one basis, helping them develop their driver skills to compete for top honours in their respective cadet classes.
2013
2013 was a catalyst year for the team, as the Super One Series Honda Cadet British Championship was won by Kiern Jewiss, driving for Next-Gen Motorsport.
Alongside Jewiss' success, taking the title in dominant fashion with a race to spare, fellow team-mates Matthew Hopcraft and Tom Canning both finished with strong finishing positions of 4th and 7th respectively as Next-Gen firmly made their mark on the British Karting Scene.
THE NEXT GENERATION
With Next-Gen previously run on a limited budget we are pleased and excited to have received some much needed backing. This investment will allow further potential to provide all drivers the opportunity to challenge the top teams on all fronts.
Next-Gen now have the facilities to match our excellent driver coaching and we aim to make a massive impression. Next-Gen have a brand new purpose-built, state of the art race trailer with a spacious awning that will be the best in the paddock.
