GROVETON, N.H. — Jenna Randall is revving her viper-red 1998 Chevy Cavalier at the starting line of a 200-lap derby called the Frostbite Enduro. Three dozen brightly colored stock cars roar on all sides, most of their drivers adults. She is not one of them.
Jenna was all of 11 the night three years ago when she told her father as he was tucking her in that she wanted to race stock cars. It is an age when kids say they want to be astronauts or rock stars or major league ballplayers — when they grow up.

While this may seem cool I just don't see the point of kids below the age of obtaining a drivers license being able to drive stock cars, must be a lack of understanding the culture thing on my part.
I don't understand it either, but it does seem a bit irresponsible. I would never have allowed my kids to participate. I also wonder what kind of drivers they'll be when they do get a license.
