Hailie Deegan Dominates in Her First Off Road Race
Hailie first became interested in Off-Road Short Course Racing after watching her Dad dominate the sport in his class. Inspired by her dad, she wanted to try her hand at racing in the Junior Class. Fellow Trophy Kart racer’s Jeremy and Chad Winkler let Hailie borrow their Trophy Kart to see if she still liked the sport after being behind the wheel. Dad Brian Deegan got to work and built a short course track in his backyard complete with jumps and whoops. Hailie took a liking to the sport and on her 8th birthday was given her first Trophy Kart. Since then, she’s been hard at work practicing everyday at the local track to prove that she has what it takes to win a podium position. Following in the footsteps of her father, Hailie Deegan is looking towards the future and has already made a mark in her short course career. Just as her dad Brian Deegan has done in his professional career, you can expect to see many more wins from Hailie Deegan!

Brian Deegan was invited to compete in the “Celebrity Race” last weekend racing a Trophy Truck alongside fellow short course racers Kyle Leduc and Cassie Curry. The three drivers showed their sportsmanship and gave the fans an entertaining race to say the least. Deegan will be making his way up to Crandon, WI in September to compete in the largest event in Short Course Off-Road Racing. You can follow Deegan to Crandon, WI on twitter @mmgeneral.
