At just 10 years old, Kylie \u201cMoney Bags\u201d Mocny, who is a third-generation drag racer, is making waves in the world of junior drag racing and has been proudly sponsored by Right Trailers for the past two years. Hailing from Venice, Florida, Kylie has demonstrated remarkable skill and determination on the track, capturing a double win this past weekend at the Gainesville Raceway in Gainesville, Florida.<\/p>\n
Since her debut in May 2020, Kylie has swiftly risen through the points standings by clinching an impressive 18 victories in only three months (March \u2013 June) across racetracks such as Orlando Speedworld, Gainesville Raceway, Bradenton Motorsports Park, and even at Texas Motorsports Park for the Right Trailers Junior Drag Racing League NHRA Western Conference race events. She is currently leading in points at the three Florida tracks mentioned. Her racing prowess extends beyond wins, with two runner-up finishes highlighting her consistency and competitive spirit.<\/p>\n
\u201cI started racing because all of my family was racing, and I wanted to try it too,\u201d shared Kylie.\u00a0\u201cAt first I was scared to drive but wanted to try, and with the support of my family and Right Trailers, I found a true passion for racing,\u201d Kylie shared. \u201cNow, I want to inspire other kids, especially girls, to overcome their fears and discover the fun of drag racing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kylie\u2019s parents, drag racers, Danielle and Mike Mocny, mentioned they eased her into the sport to make sure she truly wanted to take up racing. \u201cI was so proud and nervous seeing my child go down the track \u2013 a true mom moment, but truly excited knowing that she loves racing,\u201d said Kylie\u2019s mother, Danielle Mocny.<\/p>\n
Kylie\u2019s journey with Right Trailers began when they opened sponsorship opportunities to juniors two years ago and promoted through social media. \u201cI love being on team Right Trailers because it has introduced me to so many friends. I get to hang out with Rilee [daughter of Michael Scott, President of Right Trailers] a lot. She has inspired me to have fun and take racing seriously while representing girls on the track,\u201d said Kylie.<\/p>\n
\u201cKylie has been having an incredible season. We are happy to have her on Team Right Trailers and to be cheering her on as she continues to grow and progress while having much success in junior drag racing,\u201d said President of Right Trailers, Michael Scott.<\/p>\n
Danielle, Kylie\u2019s mom, mentioned that \u201conce Kylie was in the finals with another Right Trailers racer who she didn\u2019t know, but instantly she felt like she was racing a friend because being on the Right Trailers team is like a family and everyone is really nice and rooting for each other. Being part of a team gives you more to compete for instead of just racing for yourself. The camaraderie is extraordinary.\u201d<\/p>\n
Reflecting on her favorite tracks, Kylie holds Gainesville Raceway and Bradenton Motorsports Park dear, where she has experienced some of her most memorable races. One standout moment includes her first race where she reached the finals against her big brother (13 years old) in a thrilling matchup. \u201cI\u2019ve beat him once and I want to again someday,\u201d said Kylie. \u201cThe only time we will get to race again is an all-run or both in 7.90 class, so maybe soon!\u201d<\/p>\n
Recently, Kylie celebrated a special victory alongside her family, as her mother, Danielle Mocny, and her grandfather, Roy Hagadorn, also claimed wins on the same day, marking Kylie\u2019s first \u201cmommy-daughter\u201d victory and highlighting their multi-generational racing success.<\/p>\n
Kylie\u2019s achievements are a testament to her family\u2019s racing legacy, with her grandparents, Candy and Roy Hagadorn, and parents, deeply involved in the sport. Kylies\u2019 parents expressed pride in their competitive family spirit and Kylie\u2019s rapid progression in the sport.\u00a0Beyond racing, Kylie enjoys gymnastics, storytelling and arts and crafts. This past weekend, she had another family winning celebration, as she won her class and her brother, Tanner won his at Gainesville Raceway in Gainesville, Florida.<\/p>\n
For Kylie, racing isn\u2019t just a passion\u2014it\u2019s a legacy in the making. As she continues to chase her dreams on the track, supported by Right Trailers, her journey promises more exhilarating victories and inspiring moments ahead.<\/p>\n
