Liam's Junior Sodi KartWorld Finals

Donation protected
Liam is 14yrs old and is the very first and the only Australian Sodi Hire Kart Junior to be invited, along with 39 other drives from around the world to compete in the Sodi World Finals this year in Venice, Italy in June 2018.

This is the 3rd year Sodi has been represented by Australian endurance and senior sprints, but this year is the very first year any Junior driver will represent Australia.

Liam is currently #27 out of 1206 junior drivers from around the world and ranked #1 Sodi Junior in Australia.

Liam has broken multiple records with laps of the day, week, month and all time record. He is quicker than most of the senior drivers on his home track. He currently hold the current track record of any junior or senior. Not bad for a kid who just got in his very first hire kart just over 12 months ago.

Last years race season of 18 races he had 18 podiums with 12 x 1st place wins (6 back to back to win and retain the #1 National Junior Champion), and 6 x 2nd places.

Liam also competed in the Endurance race events last year and will again this year and was apart of the winning team TSR who are also presenting Australia at the Sodi World finals but Liam is too young to compete in the Enduro race this year at the finals as you need to be 15.

Getting to the Sodi World Finals is all self funded and he is needing help to cover the costs of flights, accomodation, transport to and from the track and race entry fees and full race suit. Current costings around the $7,000 - $8,000 to get him there and to make this incredible opportunity he has created for himself a reality.

Liam has overcome many challenges and growing into the fine young man he is today and now to have this incredible opportunity as the very FIRST and ONLY Australian Junior to represent Australia at the Sodi World Finals in Venice, Italy this year it is a huge honour and achievement.

Liam is such an inspiration and gives hope to so many other kids struggling. With his love, passion and dedication for karting, Liam wants to forge a career as a racing driver and following in the steps of Lewis Hamilton and the exceptional career he has had and who also just happens he too is dyslexic. Anything is possible.
