nSiin Tom (born 22 July 285AP in Ag, Tak) is a Tak race car driver.
Early life and education[]
nSiin Tom is the oldest son and second child of well-known sollicitor Qe ob Sin and his wife Zoot ob Sin (formerly nIisi Zoot). Born in the notable and wealthy family of ob Sin (Siin), Tom was expected to follow in his father's, grandfather's and great-grandfather's footsteps and become a sollicitor, but although he started to study law at Grg University, he abandoned his education after two years and started to made a career out of his hobby instead and became a race car driver, much to the annoyance of his family, who so far refused to grant him the right to carry the honorific family name of ob Sin and ended his financial support, due to which nSiin Tom has to make his own living.
Tom's older sister Dot ob Sin also studied law and works as a judge in Tel.
Racing career[]
Also known under his nickname Engine Tom (a word play on his real name), nSiin Tom managed to do rather well so far in the modest national car racing scene. He started racing Go-Karts in Ag and later, when he had started university in Mɵg, as Grg didn't have a facility. Tom also started to attend MiniFormula races elsewhere in Bowdani (of which Tak de iure was still a part at the time), as well as Lombriguay and Davenport. Since 309, he has participated in some ICARA Lights races.
ICARA Career[]
315AP Season[]
Tom got his first chance to race in ICARA with the Alanis-Rolfe team, turning some heads by scoring a podium finish. The impression he made during the 7 races with Alanis led to a contract with team Savant for the 316AP season.
316AP Season[]
Tom followed up with another podium finish during his first full season in ICARA, and struggled to match his hugely more experienced team mate Ralph du Mareq, but learned a lot during the season for an overall respectable record, finishing the year in 35th position in the standings as a "rookie", just a few points behind fellow rookies Kesperyn du Bruye and Fatima Xtabai.
