Where is the Welshman Julian Westwood?

He had a great talent in the nineties and was the eventual winner of a F3000 seies as well as the Renault Spider Cup and several other high profile Motor Sport championships. He partnered Alain Menu in F3 and was often seen with the big names. Britcar a couple of years agfo and nothing since...anyone know what he is up to now? His talent is too great to loose.

Thats a great question. I tried google but only old information came up.

Julian is engineering cars in the UK Porsche cup and doing driver coaching I believe

I reckon he could have made a more than decent touring car driver. He competed in the 1994 TOCA Shoot-out in a not-overly-competitive privately-entered Vauxhall Cavalier and, having started on pole thanks to the reverse grid, led confidently for a long while.

Was he not related to fashion designer Vivean westwood and did he not have a sister who did the Honda championship with Mardi Gras at the same time as James Thompson,and did he not do The Volkswagen Vento Challenge with Hyperion motorsport?
I am looking at the programme for the Vento challenge race on 20th of may at Zandvoort and he was entered in that.
I helped a friend frank Greenway with that Championship too

I remember him from his F3 days, when he was one of a number of good young British drivers in the series, most of whom were in cars outside the big, powerful two or three teams.
