About us
Steve has 23 years of motor racing experience behind him. He was the 1993 South African Production Car Champion and also won individual events on many other occasions. He spent 8 years with the Ford Motor Company both as a racing driver and manager of the South African Ford Racing Team—all of which included building and developing Ford race cars.
Having built and raced the pre-2004 Fiestas, as well as the later model Mk6 Fiestas, his knowledge of the ROCAM, DURATEC and ZETEC-S engines is comprehensive.
Every bit of advantage from the motors in this production car category was explored and exploited to the utmost. Steve also happens to be a qualified Mechanical Engineer!
It is from this very professional background that the SWR Performance Parts and Kits have been developed.
