Paul Radisich

Paul Radisich (born 9 October 1962) is a New Zealand racing driver from Auckland, who competed in the 1990, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998 seasons of the British Touring Car Championship.

BTCC Career
Paul began racing in the 1993 season of the British Touring Car Championship in a Ford Mondeo prepared by teammate Andy Rouse. He finished 3rd in the championship despite only racing in the championship for half a year. He raced again for Andy Rouse in 1994, finishing 3rd again behind Gabriele Tarquini in an Alfa Romeo and Alain Menu in a Renault. In 1995, he would again race for Andy Rouse but by the end of the 1995 season the car had reached the end of its development cycle and the car became uncompetitive towards the end of the season. The car was also uncompetitive in 1996 when West Surrey Racing took over the Ford team from Andy Rouse, finishing 13th in the championship. In 1997, a new Mondeo was introduced, but was uncompetitive and was no challenge to the front running teams. In 1998, he raced for Peugeot in a 406 but had a disappointing season.

V8 Supercars
In 1999 until 2008, Paul raced in the Australian V8 Supercars championship. He crashed heavily during practice for a race at the 2008 Bathurst 1000 and retired from racing.
