Larsen Motorsports Fiery Female Debut for 2015

Daytona Beach, FL – The Florida based jet racing teams of Larsen Motorsports announced today they will debut their first ever all female jet racing team. In 2015 the Miller Welding Jet Racing team will be led by Larsen Motorsport’s own Paige Sanchez as crew chief wrenching for driver and company Co-owner Elaine Larsen on the Miller Welding Jet Dragster.

Sanchez began her role at Larsen Motorsports as a Final Assembly Specialist student intern. In early 2014, she led the design and engineering of the company’s turbine engine test cell tie-down pad used for engine testing and bio-fuel research & development. Finally in 2014, she traveled with the team co-hosting the all new Jet Technology Center helping fans across North America understand what it takes to design, engineer, build, and operate a professional jet racing team.

“I feel so blessed to be given this opportunity because this position is everything that I have ever worked for,” said Sanchez. “I couldn’t be more excited to team up with Elaine and powerfully represent women in motorsports – drivers AND crew. Elaine and Chris have been such amazing mentors for me. I am ready for the challenges as a crew chief, and know with the support network at Larsen Motorsports the Miller Welding Team is ready for the 2015 racing season.”

Sanchez will graduate in 2015 with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering with a focus on high performance vehicles. Since the age of nine she has dreamed of leading a championship caliber race team, and in 2015 her dream will come true with Elaine Larsen at the wheel making a run at a second IHRA Nitro-Jam championship.
