Team RPM was founded by team owner and manager Robin Peter Mortimer. Hailing from a background of motorsport as the son of well known Brooklands racer Charles Mortimer and brother of 1972 125cc runner up in the world championship and 8 times TT winner Chas Mortimer Robin has had a lifetime in the industry competing at the highest level of both cars and bikes as a competitor and a manager. Robin himself competed in motorcycle Grandprix and won many titles himself including the 1979 BMCRC 500cc Championship. Robin then turned his attention to racing cars in 1989 with highlights including twice being Ferrari British Champion and Twice being on the Podium at the Macau Supercar Grandprix in the early 90's. Having retired from racing himself he turned his eye to management as the owner of the Old Spice Ducati Team in 1996 giving a first opportunity of a superbike ride to Chris Walker and Scott Smart as well as running Terry Rymer. He also worked in collaberation with Mike Rutter over the 1995 season. All of this experience coupled with dedicated, motivated and highly skilled staff with a burning desire to win is what has made Team RPM the sucessful team that it is today and is what drives it to win in the future.
