The Team

Mark Kelley | Owner
If he seems grumpy, just give him a snack. Watch him in NBC’s Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge along with Rutlege Wood, Hert and a bunch of other car builders make life-size HotWheels cars (available on Amazon Prime in the UK).

Gwion Savill | Operations
A long-time customer and friend of the shop, when he’s not out ripping in his V8 AE86 or carving the back roads of Wales you might find him here making sure we’re all doing what we’re supposed to.

Kieran Wilson | Engineer
Kieran is the heart of the fabrication work in the shop and making sure that all the custom parts function just as good as they look.

Callum Davies | Mechanic
You can find Callum doing whatever is needed around the shop. Some days it could be fiberglassing, some days it could be building an engine. When he’s not at the shop you can find him in his S14.

Ian Waddington | Fabricator
He’s built some of the best cars anywhere in the World and some say he could lay down a perfect TIG weld in the dark with his eyes closed. You probably know him as the voice of drifting, catch him commentating at Drift Masters when he’s not here tangled in a rollcage.

John Allen | Tuning
With our own in-house dyno, it’s crtitical to have someone like John from Yenspeed Tuning’s experience making sure that when it comes to making big horsepower numbers he’s the one on the laptop.

Lee Thomas | Paint
Lee takes the bent and broken stuff and makes it pretty again.

Shop Chicken | Life Coach
Shop Chicken has been here from the start, looking over us and offering wisdom. Some people say if you squeeze him it’s worth +15 horsepower.
