...child, did you grow up wanting to be a racecar driver? Or did you have something else in mind? -Sara Simpson, Gulfport, Miss.As a kid, you're not making a lot plans. I got into racing through my mom and my stepfather, particularly my stepfather. It really just started out as a hobby, and then we started having success.
