Hailing from Queensland, Paine etched his name into the record books by becoming the inaugural Formula RX8 Champion in 2024, clinching the title by a narrow 13-point margin. In 2025, Paine took a significant step forward in his racing career by debuting in the TA2 Muscle Car Series during Round 3 at Sydney Motorsport Park. In his third race of the weekend, Paine secured a podium finish, demonstrating his ability to adapt quickly to the high-powered TA2 machinery.
