FROM an early age it was pretty obvious to his family that 20-year-old Adam Woodward, of Whitstone, was going to be involved in cars.

At the age of two he went to his first road rally where his dad and uncle were competing and you would see him at every event thereafter, whether it be hill climbing or rallying.

He has spent many years working on his father's Escort Rally Car and his uncle's single seater racing car so when he decided to enrol through Holsworthy Community College to do a 'day release' (working full time with one day attending college) ABC course in Motor Vehicles it came as no surprise to his family.

While at Holsworthy, he applied to Petroc college (North Devon College), in Barnstaple, and was accepted onto IMIAL (Institute of the Motoring Industry Awards Lsd) Level 1 in vehicle Maintenance and Repair.
