Aaron Steele is ready to quit Britain in a bid to chase the American dream.

The 23-year-old from Rochester blitzed his way to the F3 title last season which has opened up an opportunity to race on the opposite side of the Atlantic.

He raced at the Grand-AM 200 at Daytona last month and it’s given him a taster of competing in the States.

He said: "We are pushing things stateside and trying to make something happen out there.

"We have two routes; one with a roof and one without a roof."

Steele (pictured) could return to the team who gave him a one-off drive at Daytona or take the single-seater route in the Indy Lights.

"Things have never looked more prosperous in my career," he said. "Previously I have had success on track and had great things happen but I then got to the point where I didn’t have the tools to make things happen.

"But now I have had success and we have some good contacts in some good places.

"Over here the place I would love to go is F2. That would be a dream and there is a prize of an F1 test drive on top.

"That would be amazing but the money involved is the best part of a quarter of a million pounds."
