Career
Pither currently drives the #111 Ford FG X Falcon for Super Black Racing. Pither started racing in his home country, coming up through the open wheeler ranks first through the evolved Formula Vee class Formula First, then Formula Ford. After a couple of seasons racing in the one-make Headquarters Holden series, an impressive top five championship result in the inaugural Toyota Racing Series led to a move to Australia and two seasons in the popular V8 Utes series.
Foreign the 2006 season, Pither joined Brad Jones Racing in the second-tier Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series backed by his V8 Utes sponsor, Kanga Loaders.
A sporadic 2007 campaign, switching teams mid season did not bring positive results, however still managed to join tail-marking main-game V8 Supercars outfit Team Kiwi Racing for four rounds during the 14-event season. After subbing for regular driver Kayne Scott at the Eastern Creek Raceway round, he then participated in a second round at the Winton Motor Raceway, although the results were not spectacular.
The endurance races were particularly disappointing after an engine failure in practice saw Team Kiwi Racing withdraw from the L&H 500. Pither was involved in a major accident during practice for the Supercheap Auto 1000.
Pither struck a stationary Paul Weel with a heavy impact at Reid Park corner, causing extensive damage to both cars and hospitalising Weel.
The Falcon was miraculously repaired in time to start the race, but unfortunately was the race"s first retirement. Pither parted was with the team and he took a hiatus from racing in 2009. Pither"s return to V8 Supercars would come in 2012 when he signed to drive in the endurance races with David Wall in the #21 Brad Jones Racing Commodore - a signing that would lead Pither to a full-time drive in the Dunlop V8 Supercar Series.
Pither"s campaign was sponsored by IceBreak Iced Coffee.
In late November, it was announced that Pither would be driving for Super Black Racing for the 2016 season.
