How Andy Evans Found His Destiny

Andy Evans found his destiny when he saw his Can-Am race in the year 1963. Even though he was a twelve year old boy by then, but his mind was filled passion for the sport. Many of his peers had the same passion, but not with the level of devotion he had towards the sport. It was this devotion that has made it possible to convert his passion into a profession.

Andy Evans used his racing hobby to cope with the difficulties he faced in life. He initiated his career by participating in the events that were held in the Pacific Northwest. In the 1980s he didn’t have the money to hire a team to look after the things including experimenting with his car, filling out forms, and hauling his car from one racing track to another.

Initially he kept auto racing as a leisure pursuit which revitalized his life. But as time passed this hobby became his life. Then on, he started devoting himself to the sport and perfecting his skills. He also started learning whatever he could about the vehicles that are used in the sport.

Evans developed his racing skills on the track by participating in races. He started to look under the hood of his car so that he could learn as much as possible about race cars. To do so, he started Scandia Engineering – his first business venture. This firm looked after the needs of the car enthusiasts who lived in the region. It provided him with a prospect to learn as much as he could about cars, and also provided him with money to finance his next race.

He became a member of the International Motor Sports Association in the year 1990, which made him a professional racecar driver. By the year 1994 Andy Evans recognized by forming a team of his own he could increase his presence in the auto race industry. He named his team “Team Scandia”. By winning 12 Hours of Sebring two times and managing to field seven cars in the 1996 edition of Indianapolis 500, the team managed to build for itself a strong reputation.

Evans life would be empty without the thrill of racing and the friendship of other drivers.
