TESTIMONIALS

JAMES HINCHCLIFFE

Mac grabbed our attention with his performance on the track.  And when we got to know him and his family, we realized he is the full package.  He has a natural focus and determination that you need to be successful in this sport.  Speed Group is excited to help Mac navigate the road to IndyCar.  I personally feel this kid has a shot at being the next Canadian racing star.

This kid has what it takes to win in IndyCar. He is the full package. The very first me I had him out in my car, I saw the talent. That is what Future Star Racing does. We find talent and give those who do not have the resources to compete a chance to win on the world’s stage. Mac is also a great ambassador out of the car. We will help each other to continue our vision into the future. Mac is a young man who, with the right support, can become an IndyCar champion. Let’s get behind Mac and become a part of the Future Star family. We are investing in Mac, and so should you.

“Congratulations on your 2022 USF Junior Championship. An outstanding result among the best junior drivers not only in North America, but Internationally as well. As a fellow Canadian, I know firsthand how difficult it is to win Championships outside your home country. The two years you’ve spent racing in the United States you’ve won a Championship and were Vice Champion in our F4 US Championship winning more races than any other competitor. Interesting to note, when you ran in our series you competed against 35 other young up and coming drivers from six different countries. The United States has long been a training ground for young talent and your name is now being circulated as a driver to watch in our industry.


Mac, you have demonstrated your talent behind the wheel at every level of racing you’ve competed in, but more importantly, especially in today’s environment, you’ve shown you understand the level of commitment it takes off the track to succeed in this business. I’ve watched you interact with fans not only during autograph sessions but also as you walk through the paddock and your love of the sport, and the fans is easy to identify. You represent the business of motor racing very well, and as we call it in this business, you’re a sponsor’s
dream.”

“"I've had the opportunity to watch the development of countless young drivers through my 20+ years of work with eKartingNews.com and the Road to Indy, and so I compare drivers regularly.  I've always been extremely impressed by Mac's grasp of all the necessary aspects of being a professional race car driver. Even as a young junior kart racer, he was dedicated the craft both on AND off the track. He connected with the media whenever possible and showed a maturity well beyond his years. The on-track skill is obviously there, no question, as he's performed and succeeded against the best karting has to offer, and his rookie season in F1600 competition has set the stage for even more success in 2020.  Canada is primed and ready for a new young superstar, and Mac Clark has all the tools to be that driver.”

DAVID MARTINEZ

My name is David Martinez. Born into a Racing family in 1981, I have been in Motorsports since 1986 when I had my first karting experience. Climbing all the way to Indycar based on merit, and being part of the early development of current Racing stars such as Patricio Oward (Indycar driver for Mclaren) and Esteban Gutierrez (former F1 driver for Sauber and Haas) has put me in a position to identify talent at the early stages. Mac Clark definitely checks all the boxes to have the potential to get to the top and have a successful career. When a driver has talent, determination and an attractive personality, it’s just a matter of time.

“After working with Mac, I was quickly impressed by his quality as a race car driver.  He is very mature for his age and extremely dedicated. Our communication as a Driver/Engineer has been great since day one. He understands exactly what he needs from the car and how to give me feedback to make the car better. In my opinion, that is the most important factor to win championships.  I’m excited about having Mac drive for my team in 2021 and even more excited for his future in racing.”

"When Mac came to us he was finishing his first year in cars. While it was clear  he had talent, he lacked confidence. We ran 3 weekends at the end of 2019 and every weekend he progressed well. Then the 2020 Pandemic hit, and that can define a moment either way in a person's life. Mac took the downtime to work on himself. He trained physically,  and mentally, and also worked hard practicing using the iRacing platform on his driving sim.  When we got back to the track, we were ready and most importantly Mac was ready. The progress over the Pandemic lockdown was amazing. It set the stage for a year to remember, and is a platform to build an amazing career from. Mac has immense talent, and the work effort to bring it forward. I can't wait to see where he ends up in the racing world."

“If you have had the pleasure to work with Mackenzie there are a few character traits that quickly become apparent. His dedication and passion for Motorsport is second to none. His work ethic and analytical approach boarders on the neurotic. And finally, you will not meet a more polite, kind hearted, superlative individual. Although, he is ruthless on the race track, his misdemeanour off track presents a true opportunity for future teams, engineers, and partners.”
