Many kids dream of what they want to be when they grow up. For Efe Ünver, this dream was to become a celebrated rally driver. Efe has always loved cars and especially race cars. As a kid, he loved watching rally races, which deeply inspired him to start his journey of becoming a professional race car driver.

Efe has now achieved this dream and is using his platform to help others in the field. Efe is a well-known rally driver in Turkey and beyond, with his work attracting massive attention. He has received various awards as a professional race car driver. He won 2nd place in the Turkish Rally Champions. Efe also placed in the top 10 during the Eskişehir Rally Championship.

He is using his journey to the top to encourage other young dreamers in the automotive industry as he shows his fans and the public that nothing is impossible. Efe’s journey has not been the easiest. He was born in Antalya in 1988, and unlike today where things are somewhat easier, it was tough back then.

It was hard for Efe to even start training. He didn’t have the right gear and had to work hard to save enough money to buy the right car racing suits. Some of his friends also didn’t believe in him, and Efe didn’t have proper support from his community. They felt like Efe had made the wrong choice and that he would fail. But Efe didn’t let their opinions sway him.

He had made up his mind, and there was no turning back. Efe invested in his dream, and through hard work and perseverance, he has made it to the top. Efe says one of his goals as a rally driver and entrepreneur is to use his brand to guide others as he shares the lessons he’s learned.

Efe explains to aspiring racing drivers what they need to know about rally driving and shares how one can become a rally driver. He is also using his online platforms to empower young drivers, showing them that they, too, can get to where he is and even go above that.

“Taking action to achieve your dreams is not easy. You will encounter many roadblocks; sometimes, you will feel like it is impossible and that giving up is the best option. But you shouldn’t let your inner thoughts or what others have to say about your goals stop you,” says Efe.

If Efe had chosen to listen to his critics, he would have already given up. Instead, he decided to fight for what he believed in, making his dream a reality by becoming one of the top race car drivers in Turkey.

Efe is also a successful entrepreneur. He is a member of the TURSE Tourism board of directors, a well-established company in the tourism transportation sector.

His advice to others in the racing industry and other entrepreneurs is to keep an open mind. You can learn from anyone; no one is too old or young to learn from. Efe also emphasizes the importance of working hard and learning to accept that there will be failures as well as successes in life.
