Harli White
Harli White, born in 1996, is an American sprint car driver from Lindsay, Oklahoma.
On April 5, 2008, at I-44 Riverside Speedway in Oklahoma City, 12-year-old White drove a mini-sprint car in her very first race. However, the car caught fire and White suffered third- and fourth-degree burns before fellow driver Donnie Ray Crawford pulled her from the burning car. More than 20 surgeries later, White is back racing. White praises Shriners Hospital for Children for her recovery, only one year after the accident.
