At RE ZRO® we celebrate riders who go beyond the track. This month Jamie Kimber did exactly that, helping the DTRA run the International Women’s Race while also lining up to compete. It was an event that brought together women from seven countries, including Build Train Race Champion Taia Little, and it marked another step forward in the growth of women’s motorsport.
For Jamie, the day was as much about creating space for others as it was about her own result. “Helping to organise and run the race was just as rewarding as riding in it,” she explains. “It felt amazing to be part of something that showed how many women are out here racing, supporting each other and pushing the level higher.”
The format was fast and intense: two laps of practice, six laps of qualifying, then heats split into A and B groups. Between helping the DTRA team keep the event flowing, Jamie delivered on track too. She qualified second behind Skye Adams, setting up close battles throughout the day.
In Heat 1 she held her ground against Skye and Taia to finish second. Heat 2 saw her fight through traffic from the back row to claw her way up to third. “That race gave me confidence that even with a bad start I could still catch the front,” Jamie says. Heat 3 confirmed it, with Jamie clocking the fastest lap of the day at 16.382 seconds.
When the final rolled around she ripped the holeshot and led the opening laps. Skye eventually made her move, but not before the two went bar-to-bar in a fight that had the crowd on edge. Jamie crossed the line second, ahead of Taia, and left with a result that underlined her pace against seasoned competition.
Still, for Jamie the highlight was the bigger picture. “We had riders from all over the world putting on fast, close racing, but also sharing laughs, swapping stories and building friendships. That’s what makes events like this so special.”
Her dual role as organiser and competitor shows what progression in motorsport really looks like. It is not just about lap times, but about creating opportunities for others to line up and test themselves.
“RE ZRO® looks for talent who are about more than performance alone,” says Lauren Maher, Sponsorship Manager at RE ZRO®. “We want riders who build community, lift others up and represent what we stand for as a brand. Jamie is exactly that — she is pushing herself while also pushing the sport forward.”
For RE ZRO®, Jamie’s work off the track is as important as her podium finishes. Protecting what matters most means supporting riders who lead, inspire and help build the future of their sport. And at the International Women’s Race, Jamie Kimber did all three.
