20 Year Old Karting driver, Entering into my first season as a licensed driver after being a novice last year. Looking to enter national competitions.
Started karting in 2021 at TeamSport Coventry, learning the basics and building up speed before taking part in the British Indoor Karting Championship. In the 3 years I competed in it, I achieved podium finishes in the local finals twice and qualified for regional finals twice.
From there, I have now moved to owner karting after being introduced to it by a friend I met whilst competing indoors. I originally started competing in the Formula Libre class at Shenington Kart Club, although soon switched to Senior X30 after a few meetings, which I have now also raced at Kimbolton and Whilton Mill. This will also be the class I continue to race in throughout 2025.
