Team Principal
Ricky Flynn
Having started racing as a junior in 1983, Ricky soon became one of British karting's top protagonists. In 1991, he won the inaugural British Formula Renault title but a lack of funds prevented him from progressing further up the motor racing ladder.
Showing his characteristic pragmatism, Flynn opted to return to karting and run his own team whilst enjoying the occasional drive in the Spider Challenge, courtesy of Renault.
His first two signings were the talented John Byrne and Niki Rowledge and before long Ricky's fledgling team had begun to develop a reputation for attention to detail, getting the most out of the equipment and drivers, and of course, their increasing number of victories.
Ricky says: "Our preparation is right up there with anybody. We are very meticulous in all that we do. Every last detail has been checked and double-checked. Our thoroughness will go with anybody's and is better than a lot. That doesn't just come from me, but from everybody – the mechanics, the guys in the workshop, the whole lot. Everything's got to be right to win the race - and with one link missing, you won't. You won't even be competitive – in the race, or even at a test. Winning races and championship is what gets me out of bed every day."
Today, RFM is one of Europe's top teams and in Britain alone, has won the Super 1 title for the past four consecutive seasons.
Race Engineer
Mickey 'Moose' Higham
Very few mechanics in karting can boast a Motorsport Engineering HND (Higher National Diploma) but Mickey can.
This, along with great success both as a driver (he took numerous wins in the British Super 1 series and was runner-up in his final season in 2006) and engineer, winning the 2006 ICA Winter Cup and British Super 1 titles with Ollie Millroy before enjoying two stellar years with Robert Foster-Jones in '08 and '09.
