She raced go-karts for six years across North America and Jamaica before transitioning to open wheel at 15, where she became the most winning female in U.S. Auto Club (USAC) history with 19 victories.
At age 19, she made the switch to stock car racing and began her NASCAR journey in 2021 at 21 years old. A driver for Toyota Racing Development, Toni has earned 1 podium, 4 Top 5s, and a record-setting 27 Top 10s in NASCAR’s ARCA Menards Series—more than any other female in history. She also made headlines in 2023 as the first female to compete in two NASCAR races on the same day, and she holds the record for the highest debut finish by a female at Kansas Speedway. As of 2025, she is the only female competing full time across all levels of NASCAR.
