And it's been a long time coming. She began her career in 2006 when she turned 8 and was amidst some very stiff competition from the start. Most of whom would also move up to the next class at the same time she did.

Been to a number of final rounds and most of those she lost going red.

This weekend, Summit Motorsports Park is hosting Shakedown At the Summit and as part of that they had the Jr dragster Shootout where the top 8 in points in each class race off for a trophy and $500 cash and a $500 Summit Racing gift card.

I have to say Taylor did a great job of driving to earn her first win. And to have it come during such a big event makes it feel even better.
