Alice Buckley is going Super2 racing with her own team

Alice Buckley’s inexorable march to Supercars was slowed by injury while kicking everyone’s ass in TA2 cars, but she’s back and more dangerous than ever. Super2 is getting pretty notorious for its barriers to entry, including enormous costs and equipment that is no longer relevant to main game Supercars (although they are quite a hoot on track). That means if it’s worth it to you to race Super2, you mean serious business. And rather than take some premium ride with one of the main game farm teams, the Buckley family team is going to do it themselves.

Just to be clear, this will make Buckley the fourth woman ever to compete full-time in Super2 and the only woman in Super2 or Supercars at all this year. When (not if) she moves up to the main game, she will become the second-ever woman driving full-time in Supercars (Simona de Silvestro being the first), and the first one native to Australia.
