In the driver’s seat, gender doesn’t steer the car—passion and precision do.
Every lap is a chance to outdrive your doubts. If you’re not pushing limits, you’re just making left turns.
I’ve learned more from spinouts than trophies. Plus, they make better stories at parties!

Stephanie Rowe is an Australian motorsport racer who grew up immersed in racing culture through her father, a mechanic specializing in vintage car restoration.
EARLY YEARS
Born in Melbourne, Australia, Stephanie was introduced to automotive fundamentals at age five by her father, who taught her about engine components using disassembled parts from his workshop. Growing up in Brighton, she spent weekends at local circuits like Sandown Raceway where her father volunteered as pit crew. By age seven, she began karting at leased tracks in regional Victoria using a hand-me-down chassis rebuilt by her father.
EARLY SUCCESS
At eight years old, Stephanie placed third in a mixed-gender cadet karting event despite being the youngest entrant. Family videos show her insisting on adjusting her own carburetor before races, demonstrating technical aptitude from an early age. Her “lone wolf” childhood mentality and hours spent tinkering with motorbike engines in the family garage developed problem-solving skills that would become fundamental to her racing approach.
