What makes you DRIVEN? |
Growing up my pops was well known in the stick shift community as one of the best to ever bang gears in a manual transmission Mustang. He even got the nickname Bangin' Bob and has since passed the torch to me. What keeps me Driven is my desire to make a name for myself. I am the son of the famous Bangin' Bob Hanlon of Hanlon Motorsports and I have a reputation to uphold |

I have always had an extreme passion for the automotive world ever since I was a young boy. Getting behind the wheel of a vehicle you put thousands of hours of work into, and being able to see the hard work pay off after an event just makes you want to come back for more. The extreme desire to make the car better, or improve on your skills is a never-ending curiosity that drives you to work hard on and off the track. |

You have to be Driven to be the very best version of yourself in all aspects of life, racing included. Being Driven comes from within and it is something that you either have it or you don't. For me, being challenged with Crohn's Disease and being put on my death bed because of it is what drives me. I knew I had to be Driven to get through that and show everyone in the world who is struggling with something that no matter what life throws in front of you, drive over it and keep going. In my industry we do just that, literally, drive over any obstacle put in front of us. Stay Driven Folks! |
