In this episode of the Women's Motorsports Network Podcast, host Melinda Russell sits down with 9-year-old Presley Hall, a passionate dirt track racer from Deloge, Missouri. Presley shares how she got started in racing after watching Kyle Larson and attending events at Pevely, and how her dad even sold his car so she could race. She competes in both a junior sprint and a kart, both numbered 25P, and is part of RS12 Motorsports.
We talk about her favorite drivers (Ricky Thornton Jr., Jade Avedisian, Turbo, and more), her scary flip caught on DirtVision, her impressive list of sponsors, and why she’s determined to help get more girls into motorsports. Presley shows maturity beyond her years as she reflects on lessons like patience, forgiveness, and consistency on the track.
