Jade Avedisian Bio
Jade Avedisian, born on September 14, 2006, is an American professional auto racing driver from Clovis, California. She competes across dirt and asphalt disciplines, including midgets, late models, and stock cars, and is widely recognized as a trailblazer for women in short-track and national-level competition. Avedisian has driven the No. 25 Toyota for Venturini Motorsports in the ARCA Menards Series, the No. 24 for Wilson Motorsports in the CARS Pro Late Model Tour, and the No. 13 Toyota for Central Coast Racing in the ARCA Menards Series West. She is a Toyota Racing Development driver and continues to expand her stock-car schedule in 2025.
Early Life and Background
Jade Avedisian was born and raised in Clovis, California, in the central San Joaquin Valley. From an early age she was drawn to motorsports, beginning her racing career in Quarter Midgets at just seven years old. The grassroots short-track environment of California provided a natural starting point for a young driver, and her family supported her move into sanctioned competition as a child.
Through her early teens, Avedisian built a reputation in junior open-wheel and dirt categories, competing primarily in USAC-sanctioned events. In 2017, she captured the Junior Micro Sprint title, establishing herself as one of the top young drivers in the discipline. The following year, she won the Tulsa Shootout in the Restricted class and added the NOW600 championship in both Restricted and A-class divisions, signaling her rapid rise through the micro sprint ranks.
Path to NASCAR
Avedisian’s progression toward NASCAR came through a steady climb up the open-wheel and dirt ladder, supported by respected teams in the midget and sprint-car world. She joined CB Industries ahead of 2021 for a part-time schedule in the POWRi Lucas Oil National Midget League, posting a top-five finish at Merced Speedway, and continued to compete in Micro Sprints, where she collected multiple wins and a Turkey Bowl non-wing victory later that season.
Remaining with CB Industries in 2022, Avedisian transitioned to midgets full-time, capturing her first Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series victory at Jacksonville Speedway and adding wins at I-44 Riverside Speedway and Delta Speedway in Super 600 competition. The results drew the attention of Keith Kunz Motorsports, where she would take the next step toward national prominence.
Jade Avedisian Career
Early Career (2017–2020)

The next season she swept the Tulsa Shootout Restricted class and the NOW600 championships in Restricted and A-class, becoming one of the most talked-about young drivers in the micro sprint community. These formative years gave her a foundation in both winged and non-winged machines, a versatility that would later serve her well on pavement as well as dirt.
Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series Breakthrough (2023)
Joining Keith Kunz Motorsports for 2023, Avedisian won the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series championship, becoming the first female driver to win a national Midget title. The season also saw her become the first woman to finish on the podium at the Chili Bowl Nationals, where she ended eighteenth in the A-Main and earned the Fuzzy Hahn Highest Finishing Female and Jason Leffler Elbows Up awards, along with Rookie of the Year honors.

She posted a best finish of fourth at Circuit of the Americas and ended the season seventeenth in the GR Cup standings. Internationally, she finished runner-up in the Australian Speedcar Championship and reached the podium at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway-based BC39, before an injury sustained at that event ended her dirt season early.
Venturini Motorsports Era (2025–Present)
Avedisian expanded her stock-car program in 2025, racing in the New Smyrna Speedway-based World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing and competing part-time in the CARS Pro Late Model Tour for Wilson Motorsports, where she became the first female winner in series history at the All-American Speedway season opener, awarded after T. J. DeCaire’s disqualification. She is also set to race select events in the Trans-Am Series’ TA2 category.
On July 29, 2025, it was announced that Avedisian would make her ARCA Menards Series debut at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds dirt track, driving the No. 25 Toyota for Venturini Motorsports.
