Initial stages
Fuller's motorsport journey commenced in kart racing, where he notably secured victory at the 2002 Winter Festival held at Sandown Park, an event hosted by Daytona Motorsport.
Volkswagen Racing Cup
Making his first appearance in the Volkswagen Racing Cup in 2010 at Rockingham, Fuller claimed a win in his second race by a margin of four seconds. However, his following round at Silverstone ended prematurely due to gearbox failure.
Team HARD. tenure (2012–2017)
Fuller joined the BTCC field midway through the 2012 season at Rockingham, taking over from Robb Holland in the Team HARD. Honda Civic. His top result was 11th place at Silverstone, concluding the year 24th overall in the driver rankings.
Although he was originally planned to compete full-time in 2013 with Team HARD.'s Volkswagen CC, Fuller postponed his season start until Rockingham, where he competed in a Vauxhall Insignia.
He was expected to return to BTCC in 2020 driving Team HARD's Volkswagen CC as a replacement for Mike Bushell, but due to COVID-19 related postponements, he was replaced by Ollie Brown before competition resumed.
Sean Walkinshaw Racing (2018–present)
In 2018, Fuller signed with Sean Walkinshaw Racing (SWR) to pilot their Honda Civic Type R during the inaugural TCR UK championship. At Silverstone, he started from third on the grid and finished fourth and fifth across the two races held that weekend.
