Dakota Carroll

#11c

Dakota Carroll drives the #11c 360 Sprint Class car.  Her home track is L A Raceway but she can also be found racing at XX Speedway and Lake Ozark Speedway.  She lives in LaMonte, MO.

Team members helping Dakota are:  Daddy, Cody Frazon, Lacy Harrison, Ron Sayer.  Tim Carroll is the car owner.

Dakota started racing in 2007 in the 305 Sprint Class at L A Raceway because they had built a track 5 miles from her house and she watched a few races and decided this is what she wanted to do.  Career highlights include '07 finished 8th in the Points at L A Raceway in the 305 Sprint Class, '08 finishing 6th in the Points at L A Raceway and XX Speedway in the 305 Sprint Class, '09 making the A Main in her first 360 show.

The thrill of racing for Dakota is the speed and the fans.  Her most exciting racing moment was making the A Main in her first 360 event.  She's most proud of getting where she is now with little experience or money.

Dakota's racing hero is Steve Kinser.

Of racing, Dakota says, "It's a great sport and girls are just as fast as guys!".
