Blake has been associated with Speedway for his entire life, recalling early memories of watching his father in action.

Content for many years to work with his Dad as a crew member, Blake was given the opportunity to step into a Wingless Sprintcar in 2009, fuelling the youngster's passion for the sport.

Blake continued to pilot his Wingless Sprintcar until the end of the 2011 season, when he was offered the chance to fulfil a dream and move into the Sprintcar category for 2011/12.

Blake's ultimate goal in Speedway is to make a career out of his motor racing talent, and will use his time as a Speedway Australia Rising Star to set individual goals for himself and learn more about becoming a top level athlete.
