When asked about the person he most admires, Brian chose Simon Dolan, an entrepreneur who won the 24 Hours of Le Mans ProAm class in 2014 (a sports car race in endurance racing). Furthermore, if he could be anything or anyone, it would be a factory driver for Porsche Racing in the European Le Mans Series and drive at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Brian lives by the motto,
Part of success in life, is pushing yourself harder than anybody else would expect
