Georgia O'Concannon is the lead driver for Paleocacher's Gran-Prix One racing team, Moffatt Dealbh-lìn International Motorsport. She is the first and so far only woman to win the Grand-Prix One World Driver's Championship. She won the title six times in the 2011, 2012, 2016, 2018, 2019, and 2020 seasons. She is also the first Paleocacherian to win a Grand Prix championship, but not the first Paleocacherian driver to win a Grand Prix race. She was born in 1986 in a working-class family in Kilkenny. As a child she participated in soapbox derby racing and helped repair and modify cars at a family owned shop located in the city's northern suburbs. From the ages of 14 to the age of 19 she received twenty-six citations from Kilkenny Municipal Police for speed and reckless driving violations. O'Concannon was first scouted for professional racing whilst engaged in a drag event at the Kilkenny Derby raceway. Shortly after graduating high school she raced for a local sponsor in regional events and for the Kilkenny Technical College's race team. After graduating in 2006 from the college with a degree in automotive engineering, she began driving full time at the Kilkenny Derby.
