Karting Standout Macy Williams Set to Make Must See Sprints Debut

Must See Racing Sprint Series Presented by Perfit-Parts and Tampa, Florida car owner Tommy Nichols confirmed today that Colorado Karting standout Macy Williams will make her sprint car debut with MSR at Sandusky Speedway May 11.

This will be the second confirmed female driver who plans to compete with MSR’s 410 series in 2024. Earlier Kaylee Bryson announced she will be competing in select MSR events this season driving for AP Development and car owner Aaron Pierce.

The 19-year-old Williams has made a name for herself in the karting circles and is looking to move into open wheel racing to further her career.

“This will be my fourteenth year of racing” explains Williams. “I’ve been racing since I was six. I’ve been racing Go Karts ever since. I wanna start moving up in the ranks and get my feet wet with some sprint car stuff”.

“I met Aaron Pierce through a mutual friend and have done one race with him so far. I ran a Kenyon Midget at Anderson last fall. It was a lot of fun. I’m just looking to get into some more oval open wheel stuff.”

“I have not yet tested in a winged pavement sprint car as of yet, but we will prior to the race. I’m excited for sure to see what it’s going to be like. I’ve been studying videos online and I got to watch Aaron Pierce race the Davey Hamilton Jr’s Open Wheel Showdown in Las Vegas last December. That was a blast and looked so fun. I told myself, I wanna do that myself”.

Although Williams doesn’t have a lot of laps in oval competition, she has a very impressive resume thus far in her young career. She has 8 regional karting championships and 3 national karting championships to her credit. She has also been to the World’s Finals one time. She currently lives in Gilbert, Arizona and is a Driving Instructor at the Arizona based Radford Driving School.

“I met Tommy Nichols at Anderson when I ran the midget. He was running a non-wing sprint car there that day. I met him through Aaron Pierce. We all went out to dinner after the race. He’s a super cool dude. He asked me to drive for him at Sandusky and I said, why not”.

Nichols confirmed he will enter Wiliams in a handful of MSR events and possibly some Florida events this season.

When asked what her expectations were for her first sprint car race she answered modestly.

“I definitely wanna do the best I can for sure. I never rule winning out as a possibility, but I wanna get up to speed as fast as possible. That’s my main goal. If we finish in the top ten, that would be ideal.” concluded Williams.
