Library · LSJA project hub
A sourced shortlist of women and girls publicly racing in Arizona, plus an active Southwest tier and a small alumni/mentor group. Compiled November 11, 2026 (America/Phoenix) for the LSJA meeting. This is a research starting point, not a complete census, and not a public recruiting announcement. This library is not one of the five tracked deliverables.

Alumni and mentors with Arizona ties
Tier 1 includes Arizona residents and one current ASU Online student who is not listed as Arizona-based. Isabella Robusto is flagged in the AZ connection column as an ASU Online student. Two additional names from the youngest PKRA classes are noted under youth karting and are not counted as immediate academy recruits.
Many of these drivers may be minors. This list uses only publicly reported racing information: name as publicly listed, series, home city or state as publicly stated, age or category if public, notable results, and a source URL. No home addresses, schools of minors, personal phone numbers, or personal social handles of minors are included. Treat minor rows as confidential meeting research, not as material to republish with photos or extra personal detail. No photographs of the drivers appear on this page.
Every row is tied to a public page fetched for this research on November 11, 2026. Ambiguous first names were left off unless a public source identified the driver as a woman. That is why names such as Jax Small, Bailey Murphy, and Kenzie Rhein are not on this list.
Confidence is only about whether the driver still appears active in 2025–26. High means a fetched 2026 result or a current-season role. Medium means 2025 activity or a 2026 roster mention without a fetched result. Low means historical or alumni status without confirmed current racing.

These names appeared on official 2025–26 PKRA timing or participation lists in the youngest classes. They are recorded here only so LSJA knows the local pipeline starts early. No ages, schools, or extra personal details are included.
PKRA Winter Series Round 7 entry list ↗
These are the clubs, tracks, and networks that produced the names above, or that sit next to the academy in Tempe and should stay on a regular watch list.
Glendale, Arizona
The most productive local karting source in this research. Kaylee Countryman started here; Ellie Caskey, Summer Joy Haley, Sophia Rubio, and others are still on 2025–26 official timing sheets.
Open site →Tucson, Arizona
Hosts club karting and national SKUSA events. Several women on this list appeared at the March 29, 2026 SKUSA ProTour WinterNats round.
Open site →Arizona (club racing, Solo, Time Trial)
Use for road-racing and autocross women already licensed locally. Results: azscca.com/results.
Open site →Phoenix-area autocross
Jessie Bistrais and Mindi Cross are active 2026 Solo competitors. SCCA Women on Track is a related national/regional network.
Open site →Casa Grande, Arizona
Kaylee Countryman completed SCCA licensing here and is described as a club member. A nearby performance-driving and licensing venue for LSJA.
Open site →Casa Grande, Arizona
The active local dirt oval in this research (Taylor Kuehl won there in November 2024). Arizona Speedway and Canyon Speedway Park are closed and were not used as current pipelines.
Open site →Tempe, Arizona — next to the academy's described location
A March 30, 2026 State Press feature on 2026 driver selection named Kaden Greenlief and Diego LaRoque; no women drivers were identified in that coverage. ASU News (June 23, 2025) described Quinn Eatinger as team president, a leadership contact rather than a listed driver. Still the closest collegiate racing organization to LSJA.
Open site →National; Arizona events have included Phoenix Raceway
Lyn St. James is a co-founder. WIMNA and Women in NASCAR held an International Women's Day media event at Phoenix Raceway on March 7, 2025.
Open site →National athlete and scholarship network
Public athlete roster was a source for several Southwest sportscar drivers, including Charlotte Traynor, Ashley Freiberg, Loni Unser, and others.
Open site →International program
No Arizona-specific Girls on Track events from 2024–26 were found in this research. The national/FIA program remains a watch-list, not a confirmed local pipeline yet.
Open site →National series that regularly visit Arizona and Las Vegas
SKUSA already runs at Musselman Honda Circuit and Las Vegas. Useful for finding out-of-state women who already travel to Arizona.
Open site →PKRA was the most productive local karting source in this research: Kaylee Countryman started there, and Ellie Caskey, Summer Joy Haley, Sophia Rubio, and others still appear on 2025–26 official timing sheets.
