Marcello Basilico | Vehicle Technician
After earning my bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering in Italy, I briefly worked as a designer for Ferrari. It was during this time that I realized office work wasn’t for me. I decided to deepen my expertise in the automotive industry by pursuing a master’s degree in Motorsport Engineering in the UK.
My hands-on experience began in garages, where I developed valuable skills on the rolling road. My focus has always been on extracting maximum engine performance while ensuring safety and reliability. Over the years, I’ve worked on both classic and modern cars, from setting up carburetors to tuning standalone ECUs, handling everything from small 4-cylinder engines to powerful V12s.
At Xatrix, I manage our dyno room. Whether it’s reflashing an ECU, programming a standalone ECU from scratch, testing and tuning your classic car for summer, or simply performing a power run, I’m here to deliver exceptional results.
Bayley Prickett | Content Creator
Bayley’s love for cars started at a very young age with his vast collection of hot wheels and model cars. He was first introduced to the TV show “Top Gear” at around the age of 11 and his love for cars sparked even further. Since then, Bayley found a big interest in filmmaking and acting and so completed A levels in Drama and Film Studies. Continuing his love for filmmaking, he then graduated from UCA Farnham with a degree in Film Production and plenty of acting roles alongside his degree.
During this period, Bayley also set up his own YouTube channel with his best friend in 2018. The channel is called “Car Culture” which puts Bayley's passion for cars, filmmaking, and acting into one. Since the start of his channel, he has reached 5000 subscribers with almost 1 million total views and has expanded his channel onto social media where his video views total around 50 million. He wants to continue to grow his presence on all of his platforms.
Last year, he was offered the opportunity to work at Xatrix Surrey to build a social media channel. He has brought his acting/presenting skills along with his experience in growing a channel to the role. To this day, Bayley still has his model cars.
