Monday 22nd July 2024
Alisha was invited by the British Historic Kart Club (BHKC) to take part in the Shenington Revival, driving demo run's in an 'historic kart'. She drove the number 11 Gold Kart, owned by Chris Hodgetts, multiple BTCC Champion and BHKC Patron, who has been Alisha's driver coach and mentor over the past few years. The event was run alongside the Shenington SuperPrix and E Plate Championship between 19th - 21st July at Shenington Kart Circuit.
Other than a handful of fun corporate kart events, this was Alisha's first time back in 2-stroke karts since she moved up into car racing in 2022. She soon got up to pace and was lapping with very competitive laps and was actually one of the fastest drivers on track, which was ultimately recognised by the Club and resulted in her being awarded with the 'Brendan Keirle Memorial Trophy' for being the BHKC 'Driver of the Day'. This was a great honour for Alisha to receive and something that sealed a very enjoyable weekend of karting.
A big thank you to everyone at the BHKC who offered an extremely warm welcome to Alisha!
