Rallycross Foust has been a strong driver in rallycross in the United States since the discipline was first introduced in 2010. His extensive racing background includes years of open wheel competition, the Pikes Peak Hill Climb, rally racing, several sorts of sports car racing, and the SCORE Baja. He also co-founded a company that makes electric skateboards. Tanner Foust began his career at age 13 when he tested a Formula Ford car for a British team. He liked it so much that he decided to pursue racing full time. At 16 years old, he won the World Karting Association (WKA) National Class A championship before moving on to European karting. There, at age 17, he became the youngest ever winner of the European Superkart Championship. He stayed with the team for another year and then moved to Australia where he took out the Australian Superkart Championship in 1999 at age 19. After some time away from racing, Foust returned in 2010 with a goal of winning the Rallycross Championship. So far, he has not only managed to win every race he's entered but has also taken out the season opener twice already this year. He is the first driver to do so since 2004 when Ken Block won back-to-back races on both opening days of the season.
