In racing, as in all endeavors, the road to success can often take unexpected twists and turns along the way. This is especially true for the journey of 22 year-old University of South Florida senior Dustin Chisholm of Seminole, FL.
At the age of 8, Dustin’s father took him to watch a go-kart race at the former Sunshine Speedway in St. Petersburg. Dustin was immediately hooked with the speed and excitement of karting. Within a week, his father purchased a go-kart for Dustin to race.
