Karting racing // American
I started racing in 2022 and it feels like just yesterday when I stepped into my first kart.
Kaylee Countryman is a rising talent in motorsports who began her racing journey at age 12, rapidly progressing from karting to formula cars with a clear trajectory toward professional racing.
EARLY YEARS
In 2022, Kaylee started her karting career in Phoenix, Arizona at age 12. She competed in various Junior categories including Briggs 206, Rotax, and both KA100 and X30 engine packages[1][4]. During her first season, she focused on mastering the 206, J2 class in the Phoenix Kart Racing Association (PKRA), building fundamental skills through local and national competitions.
EARLY SUCCESS
By 2023, Kaylee had transitioned to two-stroke engines, focusing on the ROTAX and KA100 platforms as part of J3 Competition. Her talent became evident as she secured her first national podium in Canada that year[4]. Her progression continued into 2024, where she expanded her racing experience across the U.S. and Canada while maintaining dedication to both ROTAX and KA100/X30 Junior categories[4].
NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS
- 2023: First national podium placement in Canada[4].
- 2024: Competed in the Lucas Oil School of Racing Formula Car Race Series[2].
- 2024: Expanded racing experience to include testing in Rush SR and Porsche GT3 vehicles[4].

REPUTATION
In just three years, Countryman has established herself as a natural talent with exceptional dedication to motorsport. Her rapid progression from karting to formula cars demonstrates remarkable adaptability and skill. Coaches and teams have recognized her potential, with Exclusive Autosport selecting her for their 2025 lineup, highlighting her promising trajectory in a traditionally male-dominated sport[1][2].
FUTURE GOALS/PLANS
For 2025, Kaylee will compete in the USF Juniors Presented by Continental Tire championship with Exclusive Autosport, piloting the #90 Tatuus JR-23[1][2]. The team has planned an extensive off-season testing program to prepare her for the upcoming season. Her long-term aspirations include advancing through the complete USF Pro Championships ladder—progressing from USF Juniors to USF2000, USF Pro 2000, and INDY NXT—with the ultimate goal of reaching the IndyCar series[1].
