how did i get into this type of work, well, i spent £5k on an engine build, then wantd more but couldn't pay for it so i ended up working for Jamie, from there on in i have learnt a hell of a lot very quickly in the 3-4years i have been working at JAM-sport(its the only way to learn in this business) i also have a degree in mechanical and electrical engineering which helps out alot for me, i tend to do alot of management installations, datalogger installations and dash installations, calibrating all this is technical i am learning more and more about mapping a car on a daily basis which i enjoy.
The biggest thing to bear in mind in this business is it is a way of life, i have just been on the phone to a customer now sorting bits out, i work all night i have no social life but i love my job.
if you get me..... man im sad.
