In a significant milestone for her burgeoning career, Jade Avedisian has inked a multi-year contract with Toyota Racing Development (TRD), underscoring her rising prominence in the motorsports world. This agreement, announced in late 2023, ensures Avedisian’s continued development in both dirt and pavement racing as part of the esteemed Toyota Racing family
For the 2024 season, Avedisian will compete in the USAC National Midget and XTREME National Midget series with Keith Kunz Motorsports (KKM). Additionally, she will take on the complete Toyota GR Cup schedule with Nitro Motorsports, marking her foray into road course racing.

“I’m honored to continue my motorsports career with Toyota Racing and their driver development program in the years ahead,” Avedisian said. “Everyone at Toyota has quickly become family and has provided me with all the tools necessary to achieve my dreams in racing. This commitment means so much, and I’m beyond grateful to the entire team at TRD for believing in me”
Avedisian’s track record speaks volumes about her talent and dedication. In 2023, she made history by becoming the first woman to finish on the podium during a Chili Bowl preliminary night and claimed Rookie of the Year honors by being the only rookie to qualify for the main event. She also became the first woman to earn a national dirt midget championship, securing the 2023 Xtreme Outlaw Midget title with five victories and 16 top-five finishes in 29 events
Continuing her winning streak in 2024, Avedisian recently clinched her fifth victory of the season at Paragon Speedway. She executed a remarkable late-race pass to secure the win, further solidifying her reputation as a formidable competitor on the track
With her new partnership with TRD and a string of impressive performances, Jade Avedisian is poised to make even greater strides in her racing career, embodying the future of motorsports talent.
