Tommy Michael Foster (born 10 April 2002) is a British racing driver who last competed for Team RJN in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup.
Career Foster began karting at the age of six. During his karting career, he was most notably the 2017 British Open champion in Junior Max and the 2017 and 2018 English Open champion as an Arden-backed karter.
During his final year of karting in 2018, Foster made his single-seater debut in FF1600, before stepping up to the F4 British Championship with TRS Arden Junior Team for his first full-season in single-seaters. After taking his first pole at Thruxton, Foster took his maiden series win three rounds later at Snetterton, and then taking his second and final podium of the season by finishing second in race two of the second Thruxton round as he closed out the season eighth in points. During 2019, Foster also made a one-off appearance in the Formula 4 United States Championship in the season-ending round at Circuit of the Americas.
After taking a one-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Foster joined RLR MSport to race part-time in the LMP3 class of the Le Mans Cup. Foster won on debut at Barcelona and finished in the top six in two of his next three outings, but was not eligible for points as the team's entry wasn't for the full-season.
In 2022, Foster returned to RLR MSport to race in the LMP3 class of the Le Mans Cup. Racing in the first two rounds of the season, Foster finished third in the season-opening race at Le Castellet before finishing 19th at Imola. Following this, Foster was given a 17-month ban from driving on the roads following a DUI incident back in March, before his Motorsport UK licence was suspended indefinitely in June.
Foster joined 360 Racing for his first full-time season in the LMP3 class of the Le Mans Cup in 2023. Scoring points in all but two races, Foster took a best result of fourth at Algarve en route to a sixth-place finish. Remaining in LMP3 competition for 2024, Foster joined High Class Racing alongside Jens Reno Møller for his second full-time season in Le Mans Cup. After winning the season-opening round at Barcelona, Foster finished third at Le Mans and Algarve to end the year third in points.
Foster then switched to GT3 competition for 2025, joining Team RJN to compete in the Gold Cup of the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup. In his rookie year in the series, Foster scored a best class result of fourth at Le Castellet en route to a fifth-place points finish in the Gold Cup standings.
