Driver

Her father Dale Earnhardt reportedly said that she might be the next great driver from the Earnhardt family because of what ESPN described as her "aggression, mental toughness, a willingness to push the car to its limit". Her cousin Tony Eury, Jr. said, "She was very good at what she did. I raced her several times over at Tri-County . We thought she probably had as much or more talent than any of them." She raced more frequently at Hickory Motor Speedway and Myrtle Beach Speedway. Her father hired Dale, Jr. to work on her race cars, including building one from scratch, while the two were local race car drivers. She raced after graduating from University of North Carolina at Charlotte and ended her racing career in 1996 until leaving on Friday's at 2 o'clock conflicted with working full-time at Action Performance.
