FULL BIO: Paityn Feyen
Paityn Feyen is a 16-year-old racing prodigy from Colorado who made the bold move to North Carolina to chase her motorsports dreams, transforming from a karting newcomer at 13 into a multi-championship winner with serious industry backing.
EARLY YEARS
Born and raised in Colorado, Paityn didn’t discover her need for speed until she was 13 years old when she first stepped into a kart. Most kids that age are worried about algebra tests—she was calculating apex speeds. The racing bug bit hard and fast, leading to a life-changing decision that would separate her from everything familiar. Recognizing that serious racing opportunities lay elsewhere, she and her family made the commitment to relocate to North Carolina, the heart of American motorsports, to give her career the best possible foundation.
OTHER INTERESTS
While racing clearly dominates her world, details about Paityn’s interests outside the cockpit remain largely private, suggesting a laser focus on her motorsports ambitions that leaves little room for typical teenage distractions.
EARLY SUCCESS
From karting novice to champion in record time, Paityn’s trajectory has been nothing short of meteoric. After mastering the fundamentals in karts, she graduated to U.S. Legend Cars where she didn’t just compete—she dominated, racking up an impressive five points championships. Her talent caught the attention of major players early, earning her a coveted spot in the Mazda Women’s Initiative when she won the scholarship at the 2022 MX-5 Cup Shootout. By 2023, she was mixing it up with seasoned competitors in the MX-5 Cup Series, notching two top-10 finishes and five top-15s in her debut season—the kind of consistency that separates future stars from weekend warriors.

REPUTATION
In an industry where talent is plentiful but character counts, Paityn has earned recognition not just for her speed but for her determination and drive. Snaptron’s decision to back her speaks volumes—they don’t just sponsor fast drivers, they invest in racers who embody the qualities that build lasting careers.

At just 16, she’s already commanding respect from teams and competitors who’ve seen plenty of young hotshots come and go.
FUTURE GOALS/PLANS
2025 represents a pivotal year as Paityn splits her focus between the Toyota GR Cup Series with Copeland Motorsports and continuing her U.S. Legends dominance with Joe Ryan Racecars[1]. With Snaptron’s backing secured, she’s positioned to make serious moves up the motorsports ladder, and her inclusion in Toyota’s development ecosystem suggests bigger opportunities are on the horizon. The foundation is solid, the talent is undeniable, and the support structure is in place—now it’s about executing when the lights go green.
