Still a student at the Kristin School in Albany, 17-year-old Cameron Hill will make the step into circuit racing with the Bridgestone GR86 Championship next season.
It’s a significant step up for the kart racer but he’s had plenty of support to ensure he will be ready. Cameron started racing in karts when he was just six years old but after only six months, family business commitments didn’t allow him the time to continue. He got his racing fix on motorcross bikes until he was 15, when he was able to switch back to karts.
Success came quickly in the Senior Rotax Light class as part of the Right Karts team and by the end of 2023 he had won the overall Auckland Club Championship title and travelled to America to compete in the US Rotax Trophy finals.
He started 2024 in the Rotax DD2 class as well as Rotax Lights, winning his first national title in Rotax Lights at the Kartsport National Schools held in Nelson in July.
