I can tell you with tremendous certainty that your average 15 year old isn’t prepared to operate a motor vehicle. I can also tell you that Olivia Messer isn’t your average 15 year old. Her father Matt Messer likes the type of vehicles that get down, dirty, and often deep into the rocks. Olivia is a chip right off one of those rocks, because she’s jumping into the seat of her own rock crawler and recently passed dear old dad at the sport they both love.
Olivia already has the support of Falken, which we have to imagine is pretty sweet seeing as those tires can’t be cheap.
Since we can’t raise a beer in your honor Olivia, we’ll have to raise our can of Rockstar (yellow for me please) and say congrats on passing your old man!

I am, how you say, impressed.
My 16-year-old self wonders what I’ve done with my life.
I’ve won some things, but nothing like that.
Call me impressed.

I am always amazed that motorsports continue to be so male-dominated, when there has not been a reason for it (other than cultural ones) for at least 50 years. You go, girl!
