Rookie · Legends — Young Lions
Fourteen years old, first year in a legend car, and already on the box — third place in her very first race at Dixieland Speedway.
Meet the Driver
New to the grid.
Not new to going fast.
Haley Horton is fourteen and chasing one thing — the front of the field. This is her first season behind the wheel of a legend car, racing the Young Lions class at Dixieland Speedway in South Mills, N.C..
She did not ease in. In her very first race she brought the #33home in third, standing on the podium before most rookies have figured out where the apex is. It was a statement: she belongs out there.
Every weekend now is about learning the car, reading the track, and racing wheel-to-wheel with drivers who have years on her. The goal for the rest of the season is simple — keep climbing, and turn that debut podium into the top step.
