Shaun Scott Hollamby (born 4 December 1965 in Pembury, Kent) is a British TV Director/Producer who was a racing driver and race team owner. He was the managing director of AmD Tuning, a performance tuning company and motor racing team based in West Thurrock, Essex. He also currently competes in a part-time effort in the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series and Historic F3 and FFord.[1]

In 2010–2013, he has run and driven a Volkswagen Golf in the British Touring Car Championship with various drivers for his own team AmD Tuning. AmD then switched to a Ford Focus in the BTCC in 2014–2015 with Dave Newsham and Mike Bushell and also an Audi S3 for Nicolas Hamilton in 2015. The following year would saw AmD ran Ollie Jackson in the Audi and Ant Whorton-Eales joined for 2017 in a second Audi. 2018 saw an expansion to also run 2x MG's alongside the Audis with Sam Smelt joining Ollie Jackson in the Audis and Rory Butcher and Tom Boardman driving the MG's. Currently, the team is running Sam Tordoff and Rory Butcher in Honda FK2 Civic Type R's and Jake Hill and Mark Blundell in the Audi S3's. The team ran Jake Hill and Sam Osborne in the Honda's in 2020 and Bobby Thompson and James Gornall in the Audi's under the Trade Price Cars banner. Hollamby completed a buyout/merger with Motorbase BTCC team for the 2021 season but the agreement for Hollamby to continue as Team Principal and joint owner was changed so Hollamby chose to step down from a full time role in the BTCC. He continues to work within the paddock as the presenter for the PITCH BTCC TV programme on the SKY channel, SportyStuff and also commentates on the F1 supporting Porsche SuperCup world feed.[2]
