Ashley Graaf is a rising star of race car driving from Minnesota, USA. Graaf began racing in 2009 when she earned the title Northland Region Karting Association 4 Cycle Rookie of the Year Award after climbing the podium multiple time in one season. She has raced in both the World Formula Open and KPV 100 senior. Graaf is also a model, actress and social media sensation followed by hundreds of thousands of fans online.
Based out of Minnesota, Graaf began racing go-karts in 2009 and fell in love with the sport instantly. After her award-winning rookie season she soon moved up to World Formula Junior class the following year, securing a 2nd place in the 2010 Minnesota State Sprint Track Championships and finishing in 4th place overall for the season. 2011 saw Graaf take her first 1st place victory at the 2011 Minnesota State Sprint Track Championships before moving up to the KPV 100 Young Guns Class where she held her own in the 2012 season. One of the worst crashes in her racing career didn’t deter Graaf from placing 4th overall, and in 2013 she began racing 2 classes, KPV 100 Senior and World Formula Open.
Whilst following her dreams of becoming one of the world’s best racing car drivers, Graaf has also studied promotions management to help with her racing career and is an advocate of arthritis awareness after suffering herself for many years.
