Career
His first rally was in 1989 driving a Vauxhall Nova. In 1993 he won the UK Colway Tyres budget championship in a 1300cc Vauxhall Nova, ahead of drivers with more powerful cars.
In October 2015, Armstrong and regular co-driver Paula Swinscoe were crowned the 2015 Scottish Rally champions. During the Jim Clark Reivers rally in May, Armstrong and Swinscoe were given a 1 minute time penalty dropping them from first to third place, however following an appeal in late September this was overturned and the pair were granted the win. By the end of the season they had achieved two wins and three second places in their Subaru Impreza.
SRC season 2016 saw Armstrong and Swinscoe repeat their feat and crowned Scottish Rally Champions for the second year in succession.
