EIGHT-YEAR-OLD LOVES THE COMPETITIONS
AN eight-year-old girl has found her passion in go-karting racing and is now racing on the track competitively. Ava-Lily first went in a go-kart when she was just seven and less than a year later she is now competing at various competitions across the county each month.
Back in January 2024, Ava-Lily's brother had a birthday party at Gridline Racing in Lincoln but at the time she was too small to join in on the fun.
Her mum, Lynsey Hind, of Lincoln, said: "The karts were a little bit big for her and she was crying so I said that I would sort something out for her.
"I found a track in Gainsborough where they did lessons." It was around the start of June that Ava-Lily begun having lessons at the site and she really enjoyed it."
Each session gave Ava-Lily plenty of time on the track, whilst she was shown how to use a go-kart and what to do.
