Chief Instructor:
Kenvin Low is the chief instructor Asia Advanced Driving Academy Sdn Bhd, with a teaching career spanning over ten years, having coached classes in defensive driving, advanced driving and also motor racing. In addition, he also has a wealth of experience serving as the official safety car & medical car driver for the Sepang International Circuit since the year 2000.

His competitive experience is just as extensive, having raced in Group N Best of Malaysia Championship (1996), the Proton Merdeka Race 300km (1998 & 1999), the Merdeka Millenium Endurance (2000 – 2005, 2007) and the Malaysian Super Series (2006 & 2007), before serving as team manager for Red Bull Rookies in the 2008 edition of the Merdeka Millenium Endurance race of which he is a veteran.

Kenvin also happens to be a very accomplished stunt and demo driver. He drove in car stunt shows at Bukit Jalil in 1999 and then at Johor Circuit in 2004. A couple of TV commercials featured his driving too, an ad for the Goodyear Eagle F1 (1997) and then another for Korean audiences featuring the Daewoo Lacetti.

Manufacturers regularly recruit Kenvin to be the demo driver showcasing the abilities of their cars during launch events. Subaru employed his services no less than three times in 2002 – 2003, while Mercedes-Benz twice flew him to China for demonstrations of the new S350.

He was personally trained by professional Le Mans Race Driver Dr Kiichi Takahashi to drive the JGTC (Super GT) Safety Car & FRO Car in 2002.
