About Willy
Meet Willy Kirk
At just 18 years old, Willy Kirk is already making a name for himself on the track. Following in the footsteps of his grandfather, Bill Kirk, and father, Dirk Kirk, racing is in his blood. Willy kicked off his career in 2020 behind the wheel of a BP Toigo winged kart, quickly showcasing his drive and determination. In 2021, he stepped up to the Sportmod division, where he continues to build his skills, compete at new tracks, and push the limits every time he hits the dirt.
Off the track, Willy brings the same passion and focus to everything he does - from playing competitive golf on his high school team to racing RC cars during the winter months. Whether he's turning laps or turning wrenches, Willy is always working toward the next checkered flag.
Fueled by family, hard work, and a love for the sport, Willy Kirk is one to watch. Thank you for being part of the journey!
