After only one year racing in adult mini stocks, Blair Uhlenberg (17), has taken the title of Taranaki Adult Ministock Champion 2014.
Blair, who has been racing mini stocks for three years, says he was so happy to have taken out the checkered flag.
"I love racing mini stocks, it's something a bit different, not like a team sport. When I am on the track it is totally up to me."
Blair was first introduced to racing by his Dad.
"My Dad used to race super stocks at the Stratford Speedway, he travelled all over with is racing."
