Kathy Lisson

She’s flipped cars, crossed finish lines, and now leads one of the most passionate motorsport clubs in the country.

In this episode, Shane and Brent sit down with Kathy Lisson — racer, Formula V WA President, and all-round legend — to talk about her 12-year journey in motorsport. From humble beginnings racing alongside her husband Rod, to rolling her car (and somehow getting paid for it), Kathy’s story is one of grit, good humour, and serious racing talent.
