Beginning Saturday, dozens of drivers will compete to win NASCAR's second Chicago Street Race.
"I love just fast cars, I love being around them," said 10-year-old Grayson Walcott, a Chicago native who is already a professional go-kart driver."I just really like going fast, that’s my passion just being in a racecar.”
"I’ve been moving up lots of classes since I was 5 years old. Every single class is harder, bigger cars, heavier and bigger, older kids around me," he said."I have to get a little more aggressive on track when I get older. It’s been a very long journey, too. I hope it keeps going until I get really old."
