Formula BMW Pacific Young made his open-wheel debut in the 2010 Formula BMW Pacific series in Asia.

JK Racing Asia Series In 2011, Young competed in the JK Racing Asia Series, formerly known as Formula BMW Pacific.

MRF Challenge In 2012, Young shifted to the MRF Challenge Championship across Asia and the Middle East where he was a regular driver for a number of seasons until the 2019-20 Championship.

After two podiums in the 2013-14 Championship where he finished seventh in the standings, Young struggled for the next few seasons. It wasn't until the 2017-18 Championship that he would finish on the podium again, going on to finish eighth in the standings. A slightly improved 2018-19 season followed that resulted in two podium finishes and sixth place in the championship. In the 2019-20 Championship, Young fought for the title, standing on the podium nine times across the fifteen races. He won in Dubai, at Bahrain as a support event to the FIA World Endurance Championship, and at the final round in India. Young finished 2nd in the Championship Standings, runner up to title winner Michelangelo Amendola and ahead of 3rd placed Josh Mason.

He only competed in half the season, but managed six podiums in a row at the Paul Ricard and Le Mans events. He also set the fastest lap in Race 3 of the Paul Ricard round, finishing in second place ahead of 24 Hours of Le Mans class winner Nico Prost.

Young stayed in the series for 2022, but again only competed in half the season.
