A Legend in the Making

Legend racecar driver Meredith K. ’23 shared her passion for racing with the School community yesterday. This was a unique glimpse into her world and the off-campus opportunities she pursues as part of the Exceptional Proficiency program.
On their way to compete in the Legends Nationals races this Saturday and Sunday (October 8-9) at Dominion Raceway in Fredericksburg, Meredith, her family, coach, and race crew stopped at Foxcroft to talk with the community a bit about how she got into racing. Hopping into her car (no small feat to get into the small space!), she gave a brief demonstration of her driving skills (at a very low and safe speed) around the loop outside the Athletic/Student Center. And she happily took selfies and photos with students and faculty alike — her car is a very cool backdrop!

Following her brief talk and demo, Meredith and her coach Kendall Sellers offered a short Master Class on the engineering and dynamics of Legend cars and racing to members of the Multivariable Calculus class, as well as curious community members.

Foxcroft will be taking interested students to Meredith’s race at Dominion Raceway in Fredericksburg on Saturday to cheer her on. For families interested in attending, she is racing in the semi-pro division which starts around 2pm. Tickets can be purchased at the gate for $18. Go #32! (That’s Meredith’s number, for those who watch the race.) 

Watch next week’s Parents' Newsletter for results from Meredith’s race and a bit more about her racing journey.
