I started at Car Throttle way back in 2011 when it was a tiny blog and there were 200 subscribers, mine and Adnan’s family pretty much. I was being a bum at University and destroying people at Halo Reach. At the time, my brother was creating the previous logo for Car Throttle and Adnan asked if he knew any cameramen. So I went along for a shoot which turned into another, and another, and another, until in my final year at Uni I was working 3 days a week at Car Throttle.
