As seen on the hit show, Baby Drivers! Grayson Walcott is an American go kart driver from the Chicagoland area. In 2019, he started go karting at 5 years old. He raced two seasons in the kid kart class with numerous 1st place wins, multiple other podium finishes and 6 podiums at Cup Karts North America. Due to his “smooth” and smart driving style at an early age, people around the track affectionately called him “Little Lewis” in reference to his racing hero Lewis Hamilton. It is in Lewis’ honor that Grayson races with the number 44!


At 2 years old, Grayson developed a love for watching Formula 1 with his father. Through his parents research of the sport, they found that go karting is a huge stepping stone for many professional drivers. They developed a relationship with Jim Perry of CKT Racing engines in Illinois who built Grayson’s first go kart and currently remains one of Grayson’s engine builders.

After two seasons in kid karts, 7 year old Grayson then moved to the Sportsman and Microswift classes. The 2021 racing season was a huge development year for Grayson. He spent almost the entire season training with legend Troy Adams of Adams Motorsports Park in California. Joining the Troy Adams racing team has been a major accomplishment for Grayson!
Grayson currently races in the Midwest and west coast with plans to join the southern series soon!

When not racing, Grayson enjoys traveling, swimming and skyscrapers. He has been in Chinese immersion since kindergarten and is an excellent student.
