Cliff Dempsey Racing Enters New Era

After a delayed start to the 2020 season, Cliff Dempsey Racing will resume testing this week under new management as Andy Low, who has worked for Cliff Dempsey Racing and is a good friend of the team, takes the reigns after buying the team off Cliff and Michelle Dempsey. 

Now Low Dempsey Racing, the team is looking to start a new era in Formula Ford but Cliff will remain as part of the team in order to ensure a smooth transition between owners. With regards to the name change, Andy Low, the new owner stated “We wanted the name to reflect the ownership change but equally we wanted to play homage to the past and include the Dempsey name. The team has worked so hard over the last 30 years to establish themselves and build a great reputation that we didn’t want to throw that all away. Especially, as apart from myself, the team will remain the same as it was under Cliff.” Cliff added, “I’m delighted that Andy is taking over the team. I have known him for years and know he will do a great job!” At just 27 Andy has over a decade of experience within the motorsport industry, primarily in Endurance Racing but also within Formula 3, Superleague and of course, Formula Ford. 

Low Dempsey Racing already has three drivers confirmed for the season in the form of Jonathan Browne, who won the Formula Ford Festival last year, and American drivers Bryce Aron and Grant Palmer, who both come to the team with impressive junior careers. Andy Low said, “I’m excited about finally getting going with the season and seeing what we can achieve this year with our drivers. Our testing back in February went extremely well and we’re looking forward to seeing what they can do competitively.”
