Meet The Carly Ellingson crew!
Dad - Cary Ellingson
My Dad has always enjoyed working on cars and motorcycles, so it was no surprise that he wanted to be my crew chief and that he was so good at it. He is so supportive of me in whatever I do, and he is always ready to help!
Mom - Jo Ellingson
My Mom is one of my best friends, and the best mom I could ever ask for. She is a huge part of my support system and takes care of the log book for me.
Sister - Stevie Ellingson
My sister Stevie has always been my friend and entertainment. She makes sure everything is in order and cleans up my car when it's beginning to look dirty. She is also our team photographer! She is a huge help when it comes to racing!
Dog - Jess
Jess loves to come out racing with us, she definitely knows when it's time to go. And like the rest of the family, she has never missed a race that we go to!
