British GT: Full Send Racing to enter GT4 Category with Darren Turner and Daniel Lavery at the helm

The latest addition to the GT4 category, Full Send Racing (FSR), are set to debut with two Aston Martin Vantages for the upcoming 2026 season and Darren Turner and Daniel Lavery at the helm of the operation.

Turner returns to the series for the first time since 2022. He has previously won his class at Le Mans on three occasions while also taking podiums in all types of classes and formats with Aston Martin. The long-time factory driver will race with the manufacturer for his 22nd season taking on a new challenge with newcomer to British GT, FSR and the Aston Martin Vantage GT4, for the upcoming 2026 season.

Lavery will join Turner in the first of the two Aston Martin’s as the Team Director raced for two season of the national one-make BMW Series as well as racing in the Ginetta G55 GT4 in several Masters Outings. Lavery will be coached by Elliott Cole who takes on the owner and Team Principal roles having previously raced in British GT back in the mid-2000’s.

With the announcement, Daniel Lavery said: “FSR started as a bit of a giggle between friends but has quickly become a serious set up. I grew up watching British GT and seeing Darren competing, so having him with us is a real honour. To be competing at this level and seeing how we stack up against the other teams on the grid, both personally and collectively, is super exciting. With Elliott’s leadership running the team and the over 50 years of experience between himself and Darren, I’m confident we can surprise a few people next season. Now the focus is on improving and being ready come the opener at Silverstone.”

Darren Turner added: “It’s always great to be involved in a project from the very beginning. Seeing how FSR has taken shape and is already operating at such a high level is hugely encouraging, with all the right pieces being put in place. The last time I raced in British GT was in GT4, where I was able to secure back-to-back Pro-Am titles in 2021 and ‘22. This time, the aim is to fight for the overall GT4 championship, and I genuinely believe that’s achievable with FSR. It won’t be straightforward, neither FSR nor Dan have competed at this level before, and British GT is incredibly competitive, but from the testing we’ve done recently, I can already see we’ve got a strong chance of making it happen.”
