Emmerdale Andy’s driving ambition

http://xclusivetalk.blogspot.com

EMMERDALE star Kelvin Fletcher will create some real-life drama this year – on Britain’s racetracks.

The actor, who has played Andy Sugden in the ITV soap for 17 years, will turn racing driver to compete in the Porsche GT3 Cup series for 420-horsepower sportscars.
And to get in the mood for his own stints behind the wheel, he checked out last weekend’s British Touring Car Championship action at Brands Hatch.
Petrolhead Kelvin, who will race for top Porsche team Redline Racing, took on allcomers in the Mighty Mini series last year and won a celebrity race at Silverstone.
He describes himself as having “the ambitions of a 10-year-old kid obsessed with motorsport”.
And he said: “I want to give a good account of myself in the GT3 Cup but it’s going to be a steep learning curve. Hopefully I’ll be a quick learner.”
SunSport caught up with Kelvin at Brands. Click on our super video to see a TV character come to life as he talks about racing.
