Throughout 2009 the Academy held a Grid Girl modelling contest to find 12 calendar girls for the official 2010 Grid Girl calendar! Over 1000 girls entered the four rounds, and the public whittled these down to a final team of 12 calendar girls. The 12 girls appeared as Grid Girls in July for Thundersport GB at Snetterton race track in Norfolk, and had a photoshoot for the official 2010 calendar.

The final 12 girls can be seen below, judges from Nuts and Loaded magazines, Foxhill Motorcross, and Global Calendars picked Amy Walton as the overall winner of the contest! Amy was crowned Miss Foxhill Motorcross 2009, and appears on the front cover of the calendar! Amy has also had a special photoshoot which has been sent to various magazines and newspapers to help her get exposure as our new winner!

Amy will also be receiving paid Grid Girl work with Foxhill Motorcross on their track dates for 2010. New faces in the Academy will have the opportunity to work with her and appear on the Grid at Foxhill as one of their exclusive 'Vixens'!

Runners up were Louise Daynes in second place, Leanne Stephens in third place, and Rachel Goldie in forth place. Runner up Louise Daynes was also crowned Miss Thundersport GB 2009, after they chose her as their favourite Academy Grid Girl for the season!

Global Calendars have produced and are selling the official 2010 Grid Girls Calendar! They also produce official calendars for Lucy Pinder, Abi Titmuss, and The Daily Star so there is lots of publicity involved for the calendar girls! The calendar has been on sale and featured on the Nuts, Zoo and Loaded websites making sure everyone see's our winner Amy on the cover!
