About Me
Hey,
I’m Kelly Bird, I am 16 and live in the North East of England. I’m in my last year of school at Teesside High.
Since being young I have had an interest in cars and have begged my mum and dad for a mini for years; knowing that years ago they both did Rallycross, made me more sure that I wanted to do it. My main dream has always been to race, and now my dream has come true.
I started of going to Chris Birkbeck’s Junior Rallyschool in Brotton on a regular basis for 18 months, after which I started to do the Junior Rallycross at the beginning of 2008, which was the first year I was able to compete in Rallycross.
I have competed in Rallycross for 2 years now, this will be my 3rd season. In 2008 I finished 6th overall and 1st lady in the class. In 2009 I finished 4th overall, and again, 1st lady in the class. This year I am planning to move up into senior minicross, I shall be competing in the MDA & BTRDA Championship, which are running with the British Rallycross Championship in 2010.
My dad is the boss of Top Gear Karting in Durham which gave me some practice, racing against other people, because I wasn’t used to being in traffic, when I first started.
My mam and dad also own LMS Events & Entertainments, offering a wide range of activities from fun casinos, clay pigeon shooting, family fun days to team building events for the corporate market.
I would also like to thank all of my other sponsors for all their suport through out the years.
