Summary

I have been involved in the car building and motorsports industry for over 20 years. After finishing school in 1997 with a matric certificate, I joined the team at Auto Tech, where I did my Qaulification for Petrol Machanic(redseal). In 2003 I started my own business, BB Performance, and since then, my business has built and been involved in multiple competition and show-winning projects. Over the years, I've mastered my skill set in many aspects: fabrication, stainless steel, aluminum & chrome Molly TIG welding, composites, aftermarket ECU fitment and tuning, engine building, bodywork, and spray painting.
