Introduced  to motorsport by a father who raced for fun, it was always likely that Garry would want to try his hand behind the wheel. From those first laps, at the age of eight, he has shown the sort of natural ability found in winners at all levels.

Initially honing his talent at the local indoor kart centre, the desire to test himself against others his own age led Garry to enter the Cadet class for 8-12 year olds, jumping into the national championship in only his second season, despite running as a ‘dad and lad’ operation against the might of multi-kart teams.

Needing to move on the following season, he tried both Junior TKM and JICA in 2002, settling on the latter for a full campaign in the national Super 1 Series the following year. Encouraged by finishing 13th overall, with several top ten race results to his name, Garry remained in the class for 2004, moving into the top six in the country, and claiming his first podium finishes as his experience grew.

His final year in karting saw a move into the senior ICA class, and he again underlined his ability by taking a series of podium finishes en route to 13th overall, but the lure of cars was strong and, following a taster at Silverstone Racing School, he bought his first single-seater - an ex-JLR Van Diemen Formula Ford.

With funding - a major concern throughout his karting days - remaining tight, initial FFord forays proved sporadic, despite Garry finishing third in his first ever race and then going on to claim the 2006 Zetec Winter Series. Regrouping for 2008, he mounted an assault on the British Championship’s Scholarship Class, claiming 12 wins but missing the title after being forced to pass on a couple of rounds.

His performance did not go unnoticed, however, and Garry was offered the chance to graduate to the senior class with works Van Diemen team Fluid Motorsport Developments. Proving himself with 11 podiums, three poles and four fastest laps, he finished third overall and looked set to move up the ladder, only to find progress again stymied by lack of finances.

Highly valued for his test and development skills in both FFord and F3, Garry has now decided to focus on a future in endurance racing, working his way towards the Le Mans 24 Hours via the SPEED and VdeV series for sports prototypes. After a handful of appearances in 2012-13, he landed a plum ride with multiple VdeV Proto champion CD Sport for 2014 and rewarded the team with a brace of podium finishes.

Garry re-signed with CD for 2015, but switched to the Graff Racing squad after just a couple of races. Making an immediate impact despite poor fortune in the VdeV Series, the Briton was then included in Graff’s line-up for the debut of its Ligier LMP3 prototype in the European Le Mans Series race at Estoril at the end of the year. Despite qualifying second in class, Garry had to play his part in a fightback from the rear of the field after a team-mate’s error on the formation lap, but eventually wound up on the podium as runner-up after four hours of racing in mixed conditions.

Although he hoped to remain with Graff and Ligier for a full season in 2016, Garry was forced to look elsewhere after the team went in another direction, but gets the chance to step up to the more powerful LMP2 category after striking a deal to join Murphy Prototypes for round two of the ELMS.
