Last year I competed in the formula ICA British Championship. I finished 13th overall, with some mechanical faults over the year. My best position through out the year was 3rd at Clay Pigeon, when I was competing with some of the top kart racers in Britain for the podium. This year I am racing KF2/KF1 in the British Championship and KF2 in Europe. I am aiming to get a KF1 license this year so that I can race against the best kart racers in the world at the World Championship. I am also aiming to get podiums at some of Europe's most competitive races.

My ambition is to be the first F1 girl driver and to then become World Champion.

History

My Dad is Steve Tillett renowned kart seat manufacturer, also known as Tillett Racing Seats.

I have been a constant fan of Motorsport from the first day I watched my dad competing in the British Formula “A” Kart Racing Championships during the early 90’s. From then on I have wanted to race!

For 2008
I am going to be Competing in the British Championship in the new international class KF2.
Also competing in the European Qualifies at the track Alcaniz in Spain.
Hopefully I will be qualifying for the finals for the European championship held at Braga kart track in Portugal, and also the world finals at La Conca in Italy.
