I am a first year Maths and Computer Science student who is excited at the opportunity to be on next year's Motorsport Society committee.
Don’t let the first year part fool you though. In the 8 months I’ve been in this society, I’ve done a lot to get me experience of what the Motorsport Society is about.
The Tour de Yorkshire is a core part of the society and I want to expand the number of people we can involve in it. TdY has brought many rivalries and friendships in all the rounds this year, which has helped strengthen the society.
Bringing in people of many abilities, from beginners to Kieran, it allows for some interesting and enjoyable racing.
TdY has been a joy to race in, with the GIAG and first couple rounds already convincing me to join our BUKC team for this year, which has been an incredible experience.
I want to expand this opportunity of racing to more people in the society so they to can find a regular, competitive and thrilling event to enjoy with others.
But for those who are unable to attend, the eTdY is another staple of the society.
Sim-racing is a great way for people to get involved in racing with the benefit of less bruises. Although it may get less attention than the kart racing events, I think that eTdY has the potential to grow and become a potential alternative for those who can’t attend our karting events.
I want to give the opportunity for people to compete in online races against each other, if numbers allow, and bring another place to strengthen our society.
I’ll also ensure that all season results will release before Ferra-
*Mclaren* win another championship (to be on the safe side).
I also want to continue the societies interest in watching competitive racing.
Our F1 socials at Walkabout are where you’ll find many members of our society. But I want to continue to grow interest in going to watch BTCC and other motorsport leagues at nearby tracks.
The Motorsport Society has been the highlight of my year at uni, that’s why I want to be part of next years committee. I want to help be a part of making it the highlight for people next year, be it because of karting, sim-racing, watching races, socials or whatever people like most about the society.
