At the tender age of 10, Drew Tharp embarked on a journey that would shape his future and ignite his passion for racing. From a young age, Drew’s dream was crystal clear – he wanted to race, to feel the adrenaline rush of speed, and to push himself to new limits. Now, at 12 years old, Drew stands as a shining example of determination and talent in the world of motorsports.
Born and raised in Indianola, Mississippi, Drew is not your average 12-year-old. When he’s not tearing up the track, he can be found enjoying the great outdoors, indulging in his love for hunting, fishing, and riding 4-wheelers. A true outdoorsman at heart, Drew finds solace and joy in nature, a perfect complement to his high-octane racing pursuits.
Currently competing in the Young Guns/Hotshots class, Drew has his sights set on bigger challenges and greater victories. With a clear vision for his future, Drew aims to make a mark in the Factory Stock class within the next 5 years and ultimately conquer the Super Late Models within a decade. His ambitions are as bold as his racing skills are sharp, and with each lap around the track, Drew inches closer to his dreams.
Behind every young racer is a source of inspiration, and for Drew, that driving force is his dad. Guiding him, supporting him, and instilling in him a love for the sport, Drew’s dad has been a constant source of motivation and encouragement. With his family by his side, Drew feels empowered to chase his dreams and reach for the stars.
As Drew gears up for the upcoming racing season, his focus is unwavering. His goal is simple yet profound – to race, to do his best, and above all, to have fun. With a heart full of passion, a mind set on success, and a spirit that refuses to back down, Drew Tharp is a young racer destined for greatness. Watch out world, because Drew Tharp is coming full speed ahead.
