Cooper raced karts from 2010 till 2015 where his talent soon became obvious with two Australasian championship titles in cadet class. He went on to follow that up with six state championship titles and ten podiums.
He achieved many national Formula Ford podiums in 2016 and 2017 and in 2018 Cooper progressed to the Porsche Michelin GT3 Cup Challenge where he was a standout.
In mid-2019 he joined MR to take the next step in his Porsche career and took a clean sweep at Townsville in only his second race with us. He also clean-swept round 1 of the 2020 championship and had a healthy lead when COVID caused the cancellation of the 2020 championship.
Cooper is looking to continue 2021 with his winning form from 2020.
