Ben is currently a test/reserve driver for Nijo Racing in the Superleague and previously competed for Constant Racing, ST Racing and Triple-Double Racing.

Beginnings

Warren began his online racing career in 2008, racing in some smaller leagues hosted at [1] using the 'F1 Challenge 99-02' game, along with current and former GPVWC drivers such as Tom Parker, Chris Williamson, David Jundt, Simon Cattell and Scott Bennett. Warren and co. then progressed to rFactor for future seasons, and still race using various different mods today.

Warren was born with a rare disability called Sacral Agenesis, meaning the bottom of Warren's spine did not form properly before birth, leaving him paralysed from the waist down, and is a full-time wheelchair user. Despite his disability, Warren uses a Thrustmaster RGT FFB Wheel, which has 4 paddles on the back of the wheel, 2 of which are progressive paddles which he uses for the throttle and brake, and uses the other 2 paddles for shifting gears. Despite his difficulties, Warren is a proud disabled sim-racer, and prides himself on being able to race his able-bodied counterparts to the best of his abilities.

Megane Winter Series 2009/10

Warren discovered the GPVWC league just before the beginning of their Renault Megane Winter Series in late 2009, and promptly entered a 3 car team called 'Triple Double Engineering', with himself driving alongside Tom Parker and Nikos Evangelidakis. Warren himself competed at Ahvenisto, Mo-I-Rana and Imola, and thoroughly enjoyed competing in the large, competitive fields, and enjoyed some good racing.

Masters Series 2010/11

Warren competed once again for Triple-Double Engineering in the GPVWC Masters Series in 2010, partnered again with Nikos Evangelidakis. Warren was only able to compete in the last 2 events at the A1-Ring, and Silverstone. At Round 10 (Feature race), Warren qualified 13th of the 18 car field, but made a great start, finding himself up to 7th place about halfway round Lap 1. However, he was hit from behind by Gavin Thomas, and dropped a few positions. After some great battles with Pavel Loknovski and Kieran Ryan, Warren found himself defending his 10th place position from David Jundt and Jason Muscat. Muscat found his way through, but he was able to fend off Jundt for a solid 11th place finish in his first Masters race. The Round 11 sprint race was disastrous for Warren though, and after accidentally jumping the start and earning himself a drive-through penalty, some contact from other cars left his car heavily damaged, he was forced to call it a day.
