Randy Meyer Racing is thrilled to welcome rising star McKenna Bold to the team for the 2025 NHRA season. Bold will make her highly anticipated Top Alcohol Dragster debut stepping onto the national stage at the NHRA Winternationals in Pomona, California, on March 27-30.
“Driving for Randy Meyer Racing has been my dream since I was 17,” said Bold. “I wanted to move up earlier, but with Megan Meyer’s guidance, I focused on getting as much seat time in Top Dragster as possible first. Now, I’m ready to take the next step, and there’s no better team than one that has won four of the last six world championships. I want to win in this sport, and joining Randy’s team is the first step in making that happen.”
Randy Meyer, owner of Randy Meyer Racing, is excited to see what Bold brings to the team. “McKenna has proven herself as a talented and disciplined driver, and we are happy to have her join our program,” Meyer said. “Her experience and passion for the sport make her a great fit for our team, and we’re looking forward to seeing her develop in the Top Alcohol Dragster ranks.”
Randy Meyer Racing enters the 2025 season following a dominant 2024 campaign, securing 10 wins and continuing its legacy as one of NHRA’s most elite Top Alcohol Dragster teams. With the addition of McKenna Bold and fellow new driver Matt Cummings, the team is poised for another standout year.
Bold’s love for racing was practically built into her DNA. Her father began racing in the ‘80s, and she grew up immersed in the sport, making her competitive debut at just eight years old in Jr. Dragster. Over the years, she built an impressive resume, qualifying for the Memphis World Finals, winning her division, earning a points championship, and collecting multiple event wins.
When she aged out of the Junior Dragster ranks, her family purchased a Mullis Top Dragster, and she competed full-time in 2018, winning two Wallys, two big-dollar races, earning Rookie of the Year, and finishing third in the Cash is King points standings. Since 2019, she has shared the dragster with her father, continuing to race part-time while pursuing her education. Over the years, she added another seven wins to her resume and finished second overall in the 2024 Heavy Metal Mayhem Bracket Racing Series.
“My number one goal is to bring home Wallys and help RMR add another championship to their collection,” Bold said. “On a personal level, I want to sharpen my reaction times and make sure I never let my team down. They’re giving me a car capable of winning, and I want to make sure I do my part behind the wheel.”
Fans won’t want to miss McKenna Bold’s highly anticipated Top Alcohol Dragster debut at Pomona’s legendary Winternationals on March 27-30. Watch it all unfold live on NHRA.tv, with broadcast airing on FS2 and FS1, and follow Randy Meyer Racing on Facebook for behind-the-scenes updates.
