He has won the Pickup Truck Racing championship three times; first in 2002{{Citation needed|date=August 2011}} and then in 2004,and again in 2008,[1] and has also taken the runner up position twice in 2001 and 2003. On 24 June 2007 Gavin became the all-time career top points scorer, taking the position away from Pete Wilkinson. Gavin won the 2008 championship, making him the first driver in the series to take three overall titles. In 2012 Gavin suffered from prolonged depressive episodes which subsequently led to several failed attempts to kill himself. Gavin faced further difficulties in 2014 when he was arrested and convicted of arson. The target was Barnards VW garage in Station Road West, Stowmarket where he left more than £40,000 worth of damages in his wake. The blaze was started on November 13 by Seager out of a “misplaced sense of loyalty” to his brother-in-law who had “a beef” with Barnards about a problem with his car not being covered by a warranty, said Andrew Thompson, prosecuting. Gavin was given a 10-month prison sentence, suspended for 12 months, and ordered to do 80 hours unpaid work in the community.[2] Career history
