"It is a little sad I didn't get the title, but it was a very exciting and rewarding season regardless. I have a lot of people to thank for helping make that happen and in particular my dad Lloyd. He has been my major supporter throughout my career to date - he has been my mechanic, my manager, my financial advisor, he's good at it all."
In fact, Lloyd Marr's New Plymouth-based roading contracting company Graham Harris Ltd 2000 has been a major support through the Formula Ford series along with Wanganui Toyota, BNT Wanganui and Org Race Wear.
"We have sold the car and are looking for a new challenge - something else to race," Marr said.
And he has his father's backing.
"After two years of testing and learning this year's goal was to win the National Formula Ford Championship. Unfortunately, it was not to be," Lloyd Marr said.
"Aaron finished second to a very worthy winner, Michael Scott from Te Puke. The championship was contested over 18 races in six rounds with Michael taking the championship in the final race of the final round last weekend.
"Both cars and drivers were inseparable throughout the championship which made for very exciting racing. We did not quite reach the target set for ourselves this year, but the decision was always to give it three years and then move on. Not exactly sure where to now, but I am sure we will find another challenge."
On Formula Ford debut Marr finished third, was then fourth last season.
If Aaron Marr had his way now it was over he would love to drive in the TRS (Toyota Racing Series) if he stayed in New Zealand. While no offers are on the table as this point, Marr said he may yet look at potential opportunities offshore.
"Sadly it all comes down to the money thing. In the meantime I will enjoy and a bit of downtime and maybe a bit of karting to help keep my race fitness up," Marr said.
