SHIPSTON High School pupil Catherine Harris is celebrating after winning the BriSCA Ministox British Championship in Sheffield on Sunday.
The 15-year-old has raced in the full contact junior formula since she was ten years old, but this was her biggest success to date.
Harris held her nerve on a tricky shale track, following a downpour of rain, to claim an excellent victory.
The youngster comes from a racing family, with her father Mick having raced BriSCA F1 stockcars, while her older brothers both race.
This is Harris’s final year in the junior formula, as she turns 16 in January. She will then progress into BriSCA V8 Hotstox and aim to follow her father’s and older brothers’ footsteps into the big league of BriSCA F1 Stockcars.
