Lea Anne, how did you get started racing and modeling? Well!  I have a pretty decent background with the racing and cars.  Ive done everything from having a show car to drag racing with my first job to doing auto-x racing as a present hobby.  My mother used to race powder puff derby when she was younger in a Ford fairlane and my father was a technician at a family owned shop.  From being at the shop and helping him when I was a kid to hearing stories from my mom... I just loved it and it stuck with me.  The modeling... I was actually at a car show with my first car, a 2000 Toyota Celica which was my show car and daily driver... someone asked me to take a few pictures in front of my own car for the local newspaper.... I did, being in front of a camera came natural... and it all started from there!  :o)

 

Which do you enjoy more? Why? Honestly I can say the racing!  I love the modeling... but I feel free when im on the track... I like to challenge myself and push myself to drive the best that I can and be the best that I can be in every aspect of the sport.  Plus it helps me with day to day happenings!  Being able to take a perfect picture if great and a good talent, but having MAD driving skills... its NOT that easy! 

 

What do you do to relax? Hmmm... to relax!  Well... sleeping in is always fun!  I like getting greasy and helping my boyfriend with his race car... or doing regular maintenance stuff on my car... going to a movie... or just going backroading... maybe rock climbing or just going out to eat, having a drink at dinner and talking over GOOD food! 

 

Do you believe in luck? Well, if it wasnt for bad luck... I wouldnt have any luck at all!  Just kidding... everything happens for a reason... this is what I go by.  I honestly cant say weather or not I believe in luck or not. 

 

How would your friends describe you? One. of. the. boys!  Or, the life of the party.  Tom boy.  Or crazy fun!  I get all of those, A LOT!
