The 2008 season is the most important to date in the remarkable career of Andrew Jordan. By joining his father Mike in a two-car team in the HiQ MSA British Touring Car Championship, Andrew is making history. Never before has a father and son team competed in the BTCC and they will race in identical Honda Integras from John Guest Racing.
In 2007, Andrew had a remarkable programme at the top level of British motorsport. He contested both the Elf Renault Clio Cup and the MSA British Rallycross Championship. For a driver who only reached the age of 18 in May 2007, it was a huge challenge, but Andrew showed that he has the natural ability and maturity to handle these very different challenges.
In Rallycross, he was the quickest driver of all, and win the Supercar title with a series of stunning displays. In the Clio Cup, a fairly fraught season delivered some podium finishes as Andrew learned about the cut and thrust of one-make racing.
Andrew started racing in 2004 in Junior Rallycross, as soon as he was old enough to qualify for a licence. He was immediately successful and won the BTRDA Junior Rallycross title in his first year. He also finished fourth in the British Junior Rallycross Championship. During the season his record was remarkable; he scored 62 podiums in 80 races, with 24 wins, 20 second places and 18 third places.
In 2005, he won four racing titles. In Junior Rallycross, he dominated to win all three titles; the British Junior, the BTRDA Junior and the Super Series titles.
He also started circuit racing in the AVO Ginetta Championship, scoring seven top eight finishes in eight races, including a third and two fourths. At the end of the season he won the Ginetta Winter Series with a win and three seconds in four races.
In 2006, he starred in the British Rallycross Championship, driving the 500bhp four-wheel drive Ford Focus run by former champion Will Gollop. He very quickly adapted to the car and won overall at Knockhill in early August to mark his arrival at the top of the sport.
