Jamie Astudillo is one of America’s most versatile female racers, having made her mark on both road racing circuits and motocross tracks—a rare feat that speaks to her raw talent and refusal to be boxed into just one discipline.

EARLY YEARS

Born on October 16, 2000, in Gilbertsville, Pennsylvania, Jamie grew up in a household where motorcycles weren’t just a hobby—they were a way of life. Her parents, who immigrated from Ecuador and Costa Rica, raised Jamie and her two older brothers with grit and determination, despite coming from countries where money was tight. The family was so committed to racing that Jamie and her brothers were homeschooled during the winter months to maximize riding and training time. While other kids were stuck in classrooms, the Astudillo siblings were on two wheels, sharpening their skills and building the foundation for what would become Jamie’s professional career.

OTHER INTERESTS

Racing isn’t the only thing on Jamie’s plate. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Sports Management from Southern New Hampshire University in April 2024, proving that she’s thinking beyond the finish line. Her education reflects a strategic approach to her future—she’s not just living for the adrenaline rush; she’s planning for a long-term career in the racing world. Jamie also works as a Junior Event Director and has developed skills in social media marketing and event planning, making her a well-rounded professional who understands the business side of motorsports. And in a delightfully unexpected twist, the song that fuels her pre-race routine? “A Million Dreams” from *The Greatest Showman*. Not your typical pump-up track, but it works for her.

EARLY SUCCESS

Jamie’s early career was a whirlwind of national championships and podium finishes at some of the most competitive amateur events in the country, including multiple trips to Loretta Lynn’s. But it was her bold leap into road racing that really turned heads. In 2018, at just 17 years old, she became the first woman to podium at a MotoAmerica championship with a third-place finish at Road Atlanta in the Junior Cup series. She was racing a KTM390 against a field of boys as part of the Quarterley Racing/On Track Development team and finished with 10 top-10 results out of 17 races that season. That podium wasn’t a fluke—it was a statement. By 2019, her steady progress caught the attention of international teams, and she was invited to race in New Zealand, expanding her racing footprint beyond the U.S.

REPUTATION

Jamie has built a reputation as a fierce, adaptable racer who refuses to let physicality dictate her career path. When the door to traditional motocross opportunities seemed to narrow due to the physical demands of the sport, she pivoted to road racing—and excelled.

Her partnership with BluStarr.com to increase media coverage for women’s motocross and her role as Junior Event Director show that she’s thinking bigger than her own career—she’s working to uplift the entire sport. Jamie is known for being vocal about the need for better support from OEMs, more fan engagement, and creating sustainable pathways for women in racing.

FUTURE GOALS/PLANS

She’s racing with Dirt Bike Depot and continuing her push to elevate women’s motocross on the national stage. Her selection to Team USA for the 2025 FIM Oceania Women’s Motocross Cup underscores her standing as one of the top female motocross racers in the country.
