What inspires you to compete?
The desire to win, I live to race! Its a dream of mine to race sprint cars for aliving sometime after I graduate from College. My dad has been successful and I want to be a second generation driver and have just as much if not more success. The adrenaline, heart pumping action of dirt racing is what inspires me.

Yes, I lift weights at my local high school gym Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I maintain a average weight of 145-150 lbs. I run 3 times a week and rest one day being sunday. I eat a very balanced diet and drink no pop or eat no fast food. I want to have the physical edge of my competitos.
Music?
I like alot of music, the type of genre I like typically depeneds on my mood and how awake i am. i like a variety from country, rap, hip hop, and rock. My favorite country band is Rascal Flatts, I recently went to their concert in Des Moines and it was amazing. I like Billy Talent which is an alternative rock, and some acustic like oasis and Jack Johnson. 50 Cent is also my favorite rap artist. Overall i like all music.
Some Personal Information About Me:
My name is Jamie Lee Ball. I am enjoying my final summer before the real world here in Knoxville, IA. Home of Knoxville Raceway, "Sprint Car Capital of the World". I like to hang out with my girlfriend, so swimming at the pool or beach, go to des moines and most of all race and work on any type of racecar. Racing is my life I live to race and thats how i wanna make a living.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
I have been accepted to AIB College of Business in Des Moines, IA. i plan on living at home while attending this 2-4 year college. I am going to major in Business Adminstration Sales & Marketing. Then I dream to drive a sprint car 360 or 410 for a living. Thats my dream and thats what I wanna do. maybe possibly run a racing business also.
