Girl Power and Horsepower: Mckenzee Hogan's Dragster Journey

Ever wonder what it's like to hurtle down a drag strip at 780 mph before you can even drive legally on the street? Meet Mckenzee Hogan, a 15-year-old drag racing phenom who's been behind the wheel for over half her life.
​
Mckenzee's journey began at age seven when she sat in a dragster at Charlotte's 4Wide event. Within months, she was making test passes in her neighborhood driveway, much to her racing father's delight. Fast forward eight years, and this homeschooled tenth-grader is now piloting her fourth race car – a purple and green 2023 Mike Boss junior dragster bearing her birthday, 514, as her racing number.
​
The accomplishments she's already racked up would make veteran racers envious. At just 13, Mckenzee clinched a championship at her home track, Galot Motorsports Park. She's claimed victories at major venues like Summit Motorsports Park in Ohio and competes regularly in the prestigious PDRA circuit, where she races against a field that's refreshingly balanced between boys and girls.
​
What makes Mckenzee's story special isn't just her speed on the track but the community she's found there. "It's one giant family," she explains, describing how competitors support each other through wins and losses alike. Before each pass, she shares a special moment with her parents – each saying their own prayer, a ritual that keeps her calm behind the wheel even when reaching speeds that would terrify most adults.
​
Despite throttles getting stuck and even blowing up a motor on track, Mckenzee remains undaunted. Her advice to younger girls interested in the sport? "Practice helps you get better, and you lose more than you win. But don't give up and keep trying." With plans to move into faster classes when she turns 16 and eventually transition to "big car" racing, Mckenzee Hogan is just getting started. Buckle up and follow her journey – this is one young racer whose story is accelerating fast.

 Crash, Crown, and Cobalt: Delaney Dunns Wild Ride

Delaney Dunn's racing journey is one of perseverance, breaking barriers, and finding strength in what makes her unique. Racing for 11 years since age 15, this 26-year-old driver from Otis, Maine has transformed from an uncertain rookie into the newly-crowned "Queen of the Oval" in the Ladies Acceleration Tour.
​
The path to Victory Lane wasn't straightforward for Delaney. After eight years without a feature win, she finally broke through at Oxford Plains in a rental race car - a moment she describes as feeling "like I won the Oxford 250." Her determination was tested further last year when she was involved in a viral crash with an ATV on track, an incident that could have ended her racing career. Instead, she bounced back stronger.
​
What many don't know about Delaney is that she races while being on the autism spectrum, receiving her diagnosis at 17 after she had already begun racing. Rather than viewing this as a limitation, Delaney considers her autism a "superpower" that enhances her racing abilities, giving her a sixth sense when it comes to car handling and translating sensory input into actionable feedback for her crew.
​
Now competing in a 2009 Chevy Cobalt in the Ladies Acceleration Tour's four-cylinder "hornet" division, Delaney races alongside women aged 16 to 56 at tracks throughout Maine and New Hampshire. She's achieved the remarkable feat of securing a top-three finish at every currently active racetrack in Maine, winning at three of the five venues.
​
With four races remaining and points standings incredibly tight, Delaney remains focused on consistent performance to potentially claim the overall championship. For aspiring racers, especially young women, her advice is simple: "Start early, earlier the better." Her story stands as powerful proof that with persistence, support, and self-belief, remarkable achievements are possible regardless of your starting point or the challenges you face.
​

Kennedy Swan: Fast, Fearless & Fully Braided

At just 18 years old, Kennedy Swan has already raced her way into the record books—literally. The Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin native is a Punky Manor Champion, WISSOTA Modified Rookie of the Year, and one of only twelve 2025 Hoosier Heroes nationwide. She's also the only female driver in the WISSOTA Modified class out of 300+ competitors.

Kennedy races ice quads in the winter, works a part-time job, studies business to build her racing career, and still finds time to be a role model for younger fans.

👧 “You're not going to be great right away—but with hard work and passion, you can be successful.”
💪 Tune in to hear how she handles adversity, burnout, and breakdowns—and why her French braids have become her racing signature.

Ink & Engines: Four Decades of Motorsports Storytelling with Deb Williams

From sleeping peacefully under loudspeakers at dirt tracks as a baby to witnessing Richard Petty's historic 200th victory with President Reagan in attendance, Deb Williams has lived and breathed motorsports her entire life. Now in her fourth decade as a motorsports journalist, Williams takes us on a captivating journey from her humble beginnings in a North Carolina mill town to becoming the first female to cover NASCAR for an international wire service.
​
The passion that drove a 13-year-old girl to declare she would become a motorsports writer after spotting statistical errors in her local newspaper's racing coverage has never diminished. Williams shares colorful anecdotes from an era when racing coverage was built on personal relationships – times when journalists, drivers, and team members would gather at local restaurants after races, forging bonds that transcended professional obligations. Her stories of interviewing legends like Richard Petty (first as a starstruck fan, later as a professional) and dining with Mario Andretti and the Italian ambassador offer a glimpse into racing's rich human tapestry.
​
As president of the National Motorsports Press Association and a contributing editor for AutoWeek.com, Williams continues to shape racing journalism while teaching the next generation at Appalachian State University. Her perspective on how the sport's coverage has evolved – from the days when "everybody knew somebody on every race team" to today's more structured media environment – highlights what's been gained and lost as racing has grown into a national phenomenon.
​
Williams' story isn't just about motorsports; it's about perseverance, breaking barriers, and the power of community. In a world increasingly dominated by digital interactions, her emphasis on human connection and the racing family where "you know who's got your back" resonates more powerfully than ever. Whether you're a die-hard racing fan or simply appreciate stories of passion pursued against all odds, Williams' journey reminds us that behind every headline are the people who make the sport what it is.
​
Join the conversation about how motorsports journalism has evolved by sharing your thoughts on what we've gained – and perhaps lost – in racing's transformation over these past four decades.

From Dirt Bikes to Off-Road Trucks: Gray Ledbetter's Motorsports Journey

From a two-year-old denied a plastic toy car to racing alongside Travis Pastrana in Saudi Arabia, Gray Ledbetter's journey through motorsports defies all expectations. With no family racing background whatsoever, Gray carved her own path through sheer determination and a natural talent that was evident from the moment she first climbed onto a four-wheeler.
​
Gray's story is remarkable not just for her racing accomplishments—which include winning a championship in her first year of truck racing—but for how she's navigated the unique challenges of growing up at racetracks rather than in classrooms. When traditional schooling became impossible due to her intense travel schedule, she enrolled in On Track School, completing her education online while crisscrossing the country for competitions. By age 12, she was flying solo to training sessions in Arizona, displaying a maturity and independence that continues to define her approach to racing.
​
Now competing in Pro Light trucks in the Champ Off Road series, Gray brings a refreshingly levelheaded perspective to a high-pressure sport. Rather than overthinking before races, she deliberately keeps her mind clear until moments before the green flag. "If you're not having fun," she says, "why do it?" This philosophy has served her well through the inevitable highs and lows of racing, from championship victories to mechanical failures and crashes.
​
Perhaps most inspiring is Gray's role as a trailblazer for young women in motorsports. While she doesn't dwell on gender barriers—"Once you put a helmet on, you're a driver, it doesn't matter who you are"—she acknowledges the special connection she shares with the girls who visit her pit area. They see in her what's possible when passion meets opportunity, regardless of background or tradition.
​
What's next for this rising star? While she's focused on her current truck racing season, Gray dreams of someday racing a Porsche 911 GT3 at the Daytona 24 Hours. Based on everything she's accomplished before her 21st birthday, it would be unwise to bet against her making that dream come true. Subscribe now to follow Gray's incredible journey through the world of motorsports!
