Chloe Chambers, from Monroe, is a Formula 4 racecar driver and world record setter.
She made the Guinness Book of World Records last year for fastest vehicle slalom in a Porsche Spyder - maneuvering through 50 cones at a speed of 47.45 seconds. I was adopted from China when I was 11 months old.and got into racing when I was 8 years old, she says. The Porsche world record was really definitely a highlight. It was just super awesome to get that opportunity and record. To be able to set that world record in itself is really cool.
