At an early age, he was interested in stunt driving, spending his childhood driving on dirt roads and fields.[4] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Comrie-Picard holds five university degrees: an M.A. from Trinity College, Oxford, a B.A. from The University of Trinity College (University of Toronto), and an MBA and LL.B. (law) degree from McGill University.[5]In 1992, he was appointed the Scribe, or head, of the secretive Episkopon society at Trinity College, Toronto. He took the society underground by disassociating with the college after the administration demanded that Episkopon develop a constitution which he refused. He told the Canadian national Globe and Mail newspaper, “It’s satire, humor. It doesn’t need a constitution, and it doesn’t need to be approved.”[6]Racing career[edit]Comrie-Picard has competed at the top levels of Pro Rally Racing (driving for Mitsubishi,[7] Toyota, and Ford), Pro Drifting (Dodge Viper),[8] desert off-road racing (two-time Baja1000 class winner), Short Course off-road,[9] Hillclimb (Pikes Peak International Hillclimb record-holder), and Endurance circuit racing.He is a 5-time X Games athlete in Rally Car Racing and Rallycross.

In 2010 at Pikes Peak, he crashed at Engineer’s Corner.[12] In 2011, after several seasons of rallying in the top-level AWD category, he returned to rally competition in the 2WD category, campaigning for a manufacturer-backed 2011 Scion xD in selected Rally America events. He also drove a Mark IV Toyota Supra to second place in the Modern division at Targa Newfoundland after coming in sixth in the same car in 2010. He competed in the Baja 1000 desert race in 2011 and 2013 in a Class 10 Baja Challenge buggy for BFGoodrich; he and his team won the class in 2013.

He also competed in the 2012 and 2013 Pikes Peak International Hillclimb with a version of the Scion xD. Coming off the successful 3-year development program with the Scion Rally Team, in January 2014, “ACP” moved over to Ford Racing and Team O’Neil, driving a Ford Fiesta ST developed by Team O’Neil and M-Sport to compete for the 2014 Rally America 2WD Championship.[14] In July 2014, he secured the 2014 Rally America 2WD Championship with two events remaining, and in the 2014 season took five firsts, two seconds, and a third. He also secured seventeen consecutive podiums from 2012\u20132014, and for only the second time in a decade of Rally America history, put a 2wd car on the overall national podium.[15] In July 2017, Andrew Comrie-Picard returned to rally competition in the American Rally Association Series New England Forest Rally for the gravel rally debut of the Ford Focus RS developed by Team O’Neil. The new car, which had competed for the first time at the Mount Washington Hill Climb, placed first in Production4WD class and fourth overall.[16]Comrie-Picard was a consulting producer and stunt coordinator in several seasons of Top Gear USA on the History Channel and appeared as a stunt driver in recent Tyler Perry, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Charlize Theron, Deadpool, and Fast and Furious films. He designed and tested an extreme stunt course for NetflixHyperdrive, and coached competitors worldwide in their attempts to complete it for television.
