FULL BIO: Kenzie Pierce
At just 16 years old, Kenzie Pierce is already making her mark in the testosterone-fueled world of drag racing, piloting a compressed air supercharged Chevy Colorado with the kind of fearlessness that would make seasoned racers take notice.
EARLY YEARS
Born and raised in Norman, Oklahoma, Kenzie Pierce grew up in the heart of motorsports country where horsepower talks and speed walks. With a father who’s as invested in racing as she is—albeit admittedly “directionally challenged” as her navigator—Pierce was practically destined to find her way to the starting line. By 16, she was already deep into the drag racing scene, suggesting her love affair with speed started well before she could legally drive on public roads.
OTHER INTERESTS
Like many young racers who eat, sleep, and breathe motorsports, Kenzie’s world seems to revolve entirely around the quarter-mile. No verified information exists about other hobbies or interests outside the racing world—which honestly tracks for someone this committed to perfecting their craft at such a young age.
EARLY SUCCESS
Pierce didn’t waste time making an impression on the drag racing circuit. Competing in events like Rocky Mountain Race Week, Tulsa, and Flying H, she’s been consistently running quarter-mile times in the 8.7 to 9-second range—impressive numbers for any racer, let alone a teenager. Her best documented time sits at 8.97 seconds, a mark that puts her in serious company. Sure, she’s honest about making “driver errors” during passes, but that’s exactly the kind of self-awareness that separates future champions from weekend warriors.
NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS

INSPIRATIONS
While Pierce hasn’t publicly shared details about her racing heroes or what drives her passion for motorsports, her dedication speaks volumes. With her father serving as co-pilot and navigator, it’s clear that family support plays a crucial role in her racing journey, though she’s yet to elaborate on other influences that shaped her path to the drag strip.
REPUTATION
In a sport where respect is earned one pass at a time, Kenzie is building her reputation the old-fashioned way—through consistent performance and unwavering commitment. Her willingness to acknowledge mistakes while continuing to push for better times shows the kind of maturity that veteran racers notice. Though still early in her career, her presence at major events like Rocky Mountain Race Week demonstrates that the racing community is already taking her seriously.
FUTURE GOALS/PLANS
Details about Pierce’s specific plans beyond 2024 remain as elusive as a perfect reaction time, but her trajectory suggests she’s just getting started. With consistent improvement in her times and expanding her event participation, the foundation is clearly being laid for bigger things ahead.
