My motor racing journey started when I was 8 years old.

Initially I raced 100cc karts at my local karting circuit, and my passion for motor racing transpired from there. I went on to win multiple karting championships including becoming the youngest ever 250cc FIA European Champion. It was natural progression that I moved into car racing, so in I made the move in to Formula Renault with Haywood racing and secured some solid podium results and 4th overall in the Championship standings.

I felt it difficult not to have complete control over everything involved with my racing, so in I decided to start my own motor racing team ‘ Wilcox Motorsport ’, and we competed in the British Formula Vauxhall Championships , which at the time was a support race to the TOCA series. I won 5 races and finished 2nd place in the Championship.

Around came and I managed to land a major sponsor in I.C.I Chemicals, which enabled me to compete in both the European and British ( Formula Opel & Vauxhall ) series with my main focus on the European championship. I engineered and ran my own car to four victories, 2^nd place in the European championship and 5^th in the British championship, beating the likes of Paul Stewart Racing (became Jaguar F1) a well respected team in the championship and numerous past and present Formula One drivers. At the end of the 1997 season I was also nominated for the prestigious Autosport McLaren Formula 1 young driver of the year award.

In , the only move for me was British Formula 3, but I decided that it was impossible for me to ‘go it alone’ at such a professional level so ‘ Wilcox Motorsport ’ ceased to exist and I was able concentrate on my driving ( a return in 1999 with another driver clinched the team the 1999 ARP Formula 3 Championship ). So I signed up for Speedsport racing, but soon switched to TOM’S racing and a new Dallara chassis ( after a few races ) and results improved with a fifth place at the Silverstone British GP support race. When TOM’S were bought out by Audi, I had to move again, this time to Intersport and yet another engine manufacturer Opel, but all my effort was in vain and I finished a disappointing season wondering what could have been.

At the end of the 1998 season I was invited to be test driver in Formula 3000 by team Astromega, which went really well. I completed about 8 days running and was on the pace straight away at various European circuits, and often set the fastest overall session times. I also helped the team with their data analysis for other drivers, which I enjoyed and have had an active involvement with PI, Stack, Magneti Marelli and Motec systems.

In I made a move to Formula Palmer Audi ( with a view to winning the series and the prize of a fully funded F3000 drive for the following year ) but instead suffered a difficult year of frustration and problems with the car.

The year was a make or break year for me, I left single seaters and moved to GT style cars with Lotus Motorsport, winning the series with 9 wins out of 13 races, and three 2nd place finishes. After winning the Championship Lotus Motorsport appointed me as their number one test and developments driver.

In I signed up for Brookspeed to run in a Chrysler Viper GTS-R GT1 alongside Ex-Formula one driver Tiff Needel, I competed in only one race, and I achieved pole position and a 25 second lead in the race, before my driver change, my co-driver eventually come home in 2nd place, before the Interactive Sportscar Championship was forced to end due to financial difficulties of the organisers.

So I sought a new challenge and looked at JGTC in Japan and decided this is where I wanted to be to re-launch my career. I was fortunate to be backed by Yokohama tyres who found me a drive with 910 at 'Special Stage Malaysia' in the JGTC Series of which I finished 7th. 910 then asked me back again with the help of Yokohama to race at the 1000k Suzuka race, I did and won the race in a Porsche GT3.

For Japanese team 910 Racing contracted me to drive for them in the All Japan GT Championships (JGTC) alongside Japanese Indy car star Hideshi Matsuda, and we finished 6th place in the 2002 GT300 Championships, where I equaled the highest placed ever non-Japanese GT300 driver record of Ex-Jordan Formula 1 driver Ralph Firman.

During I drove in selected rounds of the All Japan GT Championships using a NISMO Nissan Silvia S16 and Porsche GT3-RS.

In I returned to the UK and was appointed lead driver for DRM Racing and using a Ferrari F360 GT car alongside Portuguese driver Ni Amorim, we won the 2004 British GT Cup Championships. As well as competing in British GT Championships, I raced in 2 rounds of the Ferrari Challenge Championship at Spa Francorchamps in Belgium, claiming 2 Pole Positions, 2 fastest laps and won both races.

For the season I had planned to reform ' Wilcox Motorsport ' and run a GT2 and GT3 car in the British GT Championships, however I later decided against reforming the team and took up an offer to drive for Vision Marketing in the final 10 races of the 2005 British GT3 Championships alongside Phil Burton, driving a Ferrari F360 GT. I helped the team develop the car from a midfield running car to claiming Pole Position at the penultimate races at Mondello Park and also winning the final Britcar GT open race of 2005.

In Adam continued with JMH Automotive / Vision Marketing in a Ferrari F360 GTC driving alongside Phil Burton in the British GT Championships and selected races in the ' Britcar ' series, at the beginning of the year in Britcar things started well with Pole Position and a win at Oulton Park however in the British GT the car suffered mechanical and electrical problems and was un-reliable, but towards the end of the British GT season things had turned around and they were finishing on the podium, with Adam setting fastest race laps and qualifying on Pole Position in the final British GT race of the year at Silverstone, as well as qualifying in Pole Position for both of the Britcar GT3 winter series races at Donington Park and Brands Hatch.

For Adam raced again with Phil Burton in the British GT Championships, this time driving the new Ferrari F430 GT3 car, Adam and Phil raced in the leading GT3 category with the VRS Motor Finance Team. The Championship was held over 8 weekends and 14 races, the VRS Motor Finance Ferrari F430 GT3 proved very fast in Qualifying with Adam scoring 2 Pole Positions and only qualified out the top 4 once ( due to a drive shaft failure ), their best result was at Silverstone on the 12th August with Pole Position and a 2nd placed finish after a very close race.

Will see Adam and Phil Burton team up again for the 2008 British GT Championships, once again driving for the VRS Motor Finance team in the Ferrari F430 GT3.
