NOVINGER, MO. -- With one false slip up, a major accident could be right around the corner. Speeds can reach up to 70 miles per hour! 

It's too dangerous for a girl right?

Wrong!

11-year-old Madisyn Rhoads is putting the pedal to the metal and letting it roll.

She is making boys tap out left and right and she might be running out of room in that trophy closet.

Madisyn is not only making guys turn heads at the track, but at Novinger Elementary as well.

Madisyn is the 2010 Junior 1 Track Champion and just captured the 2011 Junior 1 Championship as well.

She is moving to Junior 2 in the spring of 2012.

Go-kart racing is officially cool which means girls drop the Barbie dolls and hit the track!
