Early Life[]

Amanda is the only child to mother Kelley Major (née Brown), a first grade teacher and Nick Major, a construction worker.

Life/Racing Career[]

Amanda got her interest in racing when she was thirteen years old when she was a fill-in driver for a driver who races at a dirt track in Missouri who came down with the flu who wanted her to fill in for him. Amanda accepted the offer, and ended up winning the race. With the request of that driver, he'd allowed her to race the rest of the season, which was sixteen races. Amanda ended up winning seven of those races, two poles and the rest were top 10 finishes.

When her fifteenth birthday rolled around, her parents ended up buying her a dirt car which was specificed for the track that she had raced on two years earlier, where she had ran a whole season. The season was twenty races long, she won ten of them, and the other ten she had top 10 finishes.

For her 'Sweet Sixteenth' birthday, her parents got her tickets to the NASCAR Winston Cup (now known as the Sprint Cup) race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and actually got the opportunity to sit ontop of the pit-box of Dale Earnhardt, and actually got the opportunity to 'Kiss The Bricks' when Dale were to eventually won that race.

Ever since that day, she was studying NASCAR in general, like the start of the sport and how it progressed to how it came just a popular sport till 1995.

In 1996, she went to a dirt track in Illinois just to race there as by requested by Sam (the driver who she was a fill in for when she was thirteen), and she just continued racing at that track for three more years.

In October 15, 2011, Amanda was involved in the 'Better Half Dash' charity race, where she finished 5th in the event. Amanada was also testing the #22 Shell/Penzoil Dodge for Summer Keselowski as Summer had to leave early to tend to her duties concerning the 2012 Chili Bowl.
