Alisha was invited by the British Historic Kart Club (BHKC) to take part at the World Karting Championship at PF International on Saturday 14th & Sunday 15th September doing some demo runs in a very special historic kart! The kart in question is owned by Tony Brinksworth and is a 1966 Tecno Piuma with a Parilla GP15L engine.
This kart was driven by Susy Raganelli. Susanna "Susy" Raganelli was an Italian kart racing driver. She is known for being the 1966 Karting World Champion, and is the only female to have won a major four-wheeled driving world championship.
The fact these demo runs were incorporated into the present day Karting World Championship made this particularly apt and was a big honour for Alisha to drive such a prestigious piece of karting history!
A big thank you to everyone at the BHKC and Tony Brinksworth who made this opportunity possible!
