ABOUT

Ruben Dan is a race-winning karter from the Central Coast of New South Wales who is embarking on his first full season of circuit racing in the TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Australia (TGRA) Scholarship Series.

Having first started his career in late 2020 at just 10 years old, Ruben quickly made a name for himself winning his first round within months and more in the following years while progressing through to Junior Elite levels.

In 2024, Ruben became the first Australian to compete in the United Kingdom’s prestigious Ginetta Junior Championship at just 14, mixing with the best young racers in the world. Ruben challenged some of the world’s best young drivers and fought for podium finishes as a top rookie.

Ultimately Ruben scored 2 race podiums, 8 top-5 finishes and 18 top-10 finishes for his debut season (out of 24 races).

With extensive international experience under his belt, 2025 marks Ruben’s return to Australian competition and his debut in the TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Australia (TGRA) Scholarship Series.

Competing with the renowned Sieders Racing Team, a three-generation family of successful racers and with proven success training young drivers, Ruben has undoubtedly the best team behind him to be a leading rookie in his first season in the Toyota 86 race car.
