SEATTLE (Aug. 25, 2010) -- Molly Helmuth, a 15 year old girl from Seattle, has just become the youngest driver ever to win Rookie of the Year racing in the Mini-Stock division of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series at Evergreen Speedway in Monroe, Wash.
When NASCAR lowered the age limit for the 2010 season to allow drivers as young as 14to compete at NASCAR Home Tracks like Evergreen Speedway, Molly said, "Let’s go racing!"
Racing a Volkswagon Corrado with a very fast engine package, Molly took to the track racing against drivers more than twice her age. Molly, who also races karts, has become a fan favorite by bumping, passing, spinning out and crashing as she learns how to handle heavier vehicles.
Molly set her goals high, clinching rookie of the year with just a few races left in the season. She is currently No. 5 overall in the Mini-Stock standings.
