Stacey Nesbitt Bio

At 14 years old Stacey made history becoming the first lady in Canada to win a national motorcycle road racing championship by clinching the 2011 Canadian CBR125 title. Her first podium coincided with her first national win. The season included five wins, two podiums and setting a lap record at St-Eustache. Stacey also won the 2011 R.A.C.E. Superseries CBR Cup regional championship. Both titles were achieved in only her second full year of racing.

2012: Stacey won the inaugural Canadian CBR250 Championship, capturing her second national title with two wins and finishing on the podium in all ten rounds. The season included an invitation to the 2013 Red Bull Rookie tryout and a wild card entry for the final round of the Asia Dream Cup under the Losail floodlights in Qatar.

2013: Stacey ran a RS250 Honda in R.A.C.E. Superseries and a few CSBK rounds on the FTR Honda CBR600RR. She was invited back to the Red Bull Rookies selection event, making it through to the final day but not making the final 12 places. She finished the year by taking in the International Sunflower Trophy race in N. Ireland.

Stacey finished 2nd in the Amateur Sportbike and 3rd in Amateur Superbike Canadian national championships, including two race wins, two second places and one third place podium.

She still managed to finish 9th overall in (CSBK) Pro Sportbike and 20th in Pro Superbike. She also raced a couple of R.A.C.E. Superseries rounds getting her first Pro podiums at rounds 2 and 4 in Pro 600.
