Lindsay Walkup Fox, an accomplished go-kart racer in the state of Florida, has recently made her move to racing Spec Racer Fords in the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA).

Lindsay raced go-karts for six years winning the North Florida Kart Club 2000 Yamaha Light Championship last year. She attended Skip Barber Racing school and received her competition license in July of 2001.

Lindsay was brought up around sports car racing and sports cars continue to be her passion. "My dad used to carry me around on his shoulders at the 24 Hours of Daytona," Lindsay said. "I've been hooked since then."

Lindsay and her father, Wilshire, made a deal that he would help her race cars after she graduated from college. "I think racing karts was bending the rules a little, but I wasn't complaining," she said. Fox graduated from the University of Florida in December of 1999 and now she's ready to get into a car.

In July Lindsay participated in an SCCA driver's school at Sebring International Raceway to get familiar with the Spec Racer Ford. "It's a lot different than the Barber Dodge, I love it," she said of the Spec Racer. The weekend ended with a five-lap race in which Lindsay took top honors. "I had a blast," she said. "I hope this is a sign of things to come."

Lindsay plans to compete in regional races at Sebring International Raceway, Sebring, Fla., Roebling Road Raceway, Savannah, Ga., and Daytona International Speedway, Daytona Beach, Fla. before looking to race in the Pro Spec Racer Series.
