17-year old WA rally driver Kelly Thomas.
“I don’t know how CAMS selected me, it came out of the blue, but I’m so excited and happy to have this opportunity. I’ve never been overseas before!” she said.“Rallying is just fun and it’s something completely different. The dirt makes it fair for everyone - on tarmac it’s about the power of the car whereas on gravel it’s about your skill as a driver,” the Toodyay Year 12 student said. Grassroots club level events have paid a major part in Kelly's performance and her decision to enter her in the WARC. Her father Dave gives credit to The Light Car Club for their Khanacross series where Kelly started a couple of years ago, and Rally Action Driver Training for their rallysprint series that she won outright last year and is currently leading this year.
