Camrie Caruso is a 23-year-old, third generation drag racer who will become the second woman to contest a full season of NHRA Pro Stock racing when she joins the NHRA Camping World Drag Racing Series in 2022. She is the daughter of Pro Mod racer Marc Caruso and will be driving the Caruso Family Racing Chevy Camaro powered by Titan Racing Engines. Her grandfather, Papa Joe, competed in Super Gas, Top Sportsman, and Pro Mod so there is motor oil in her family legacy. She first got behind the wheel of a race car when she was just 8 years old competing in the NHRA Junior Dragster League. She advanced to Top Alcohol Dragster, then to Elite Top Dragster and Pro Outlaw 632 on the PDRA circuit. Camrie earned her finance marketing degrees from SUNY Empire State College.
