said and would always do the opposite of what she wanted to do, and it was all because she didn't see her father for 10 months out of the year, so it was by her mother's idea for her to be with her father just to have her attitude in check, and be home schooled while being on the road, and that's how she got her interest in racing.
When she turned eighteen, she was put into the Nationwide Series (while doing select Cup races), and in her first Nationwide season, she won three races, had 4 DNFs, all for blown enginges, and 1 pole. In her select few Cup races, she had two poles, three top 15 finishes and 2 DNFs, both for accidents.
She is intending on making the jump to race Cup full time in two years.
