Lanie Buice is a rising American stock car racer from Jackson, Georgia, who’s made history as the first female driver to lead laps and score a top-five finish in CARS Tour Late Model Stock competition—and she’s doing it all before her 20th birthday.

EARLY YEARS

Born October 23, 2006, in Jackson, Georgia, Buice didn’t grow up in a racing family. Her father, Gregg Buice, introduced her to four-wheelers and go-karts, but motorsports wasn’t exactly in the DNA. At 10 years old, her dad built her a go-kart, and that’s when the fire ignited. What really sealed the deal? She flipped the thing and broke her collarbone. Most kids would’ve called it quits. Buice, being Buice, decided she was all in. That crash, painful as it was, became the origin story she credits for launching her racing career. Her mom, Amy Buice, has been right there with her, watching her daughter hug the track like it owes her money.

OTHER INTERESTS

Buice’s life isn’t just about lap times and tire strategy. Her Christian faith and strong family values are the foundation of everything she does, and she’s open about it. She volunteers with the Boys and Girls Club of America, mentoring kids and using her platform to inspire young girls to chase their dreams—no matter how wild they seem. She’s also dedicated to raising awareness and funds for causes close to her heart through her “Driven By Faith” initiative, blending her love for Jesus with her passion for service. Racing might be her stage, but compassion is her co-pilot.

EARLY SUCCESS

After cutting her teeth on go-karts, Buice moved into Legend cars and immediately started stacking wins. She captured two Georgia state championships in the Young Lions division, proving she wasn’t just fast—she was consistent. By her mid-teens, she was already turning heads on short tracks across the Southeast, hugging apexes and out-driving competitors twice her age. Her progression was methodical: go-karts, Legends, then straight into late models and regional stock car series. No shortcuts, no silver spoons—just seat time and grit.

NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS

2022: Won the Young Lions Race of Champions at the Legend Car Asphalt Championship Nationals.
2024: Earned her first career top-five finish in the CARS Tour at Ace Speedway, becoming the highest-finishing female driver in series history with a fourth-place result.
2024: Became the first female driver in CARS Tour Late Model Stock history to lead laps during competition.
2024: Competed part-time in the ARCA Menards Series with Rev Racing as part of NASCAR’s Drive for Diversity program.
2025: Signed to compete full-time in the CARS Tour driving the #03 for Lee Pulliam Performance.
2025: Named to TeamSLR’s Trans Am TA2 lineup, sharing the roster with veteran Alon Day.

INSPIRATIONS

Buice earned the respect of NASCAR legends without even asking for it. Mark Martin publicly praised her after she admitted to making a mistake on track, calling her honesty “brave and rare.” Dale Earnhardt Jr. co-signed the endorsement, stating she’s “fast and a good racer.” That kind of validation from Hall of Famers doesn’t happen by accident—it happens when you carry yourself with humility and race with heart. She’s also been featured on Dale Jr.’s platform alongside fellow rising stars Jade Avedisian and Isabella Robusto, showcasing the next generation of women shaking up motorsports.

REPUTATION

In a sport where women comprise just 10% of participants globally, Buice isn’t waiting for an invitation—she’s kicking down doors. She’s known for being fast, fearless, and refreshingly authentic. Unlike some young drivers who lean on bravado, she’s willing to own her mistakes, learn from them, and come back stronger. Her competitors respect her because she races clean and hard. Her fans love her because she’s relatable, grounded, and genuinely passionate about using her platform for good. She’s not just another driver—she’s a role model who happens to be really good at turning left.

FUTURE GOALS/PLANS

Buice’s 2025 and beyond is stacked. She’s running full-time in the CARS Tour with Lee Pulliam Performance, juggling part-time ARCA Menards Series starts, and adding Trans Am TA2 competition with TeamSLR and M1 Racecars to the mix. She’s also part of Chevrolet’s development driver stable, sharing that honor with other up-and-comers like Tristan McKee. Her stated goal? “I want to be running top three.” Given her trajectory, that’s not ambition—that’s a promise. The path to NASCAR’s national series is narrow and brutal, but Buice is building her résumé one historic finish at a time.
