Sponsor Camrie Caruso

Why you should sponsor me for your next influencer campaign?

In short, at just 27, Caruso has already lived more lives than most. Granddaughter to the legendary “Papa Joe” Caruso and daughter of seasoned racer Marc Caruso, Camrie was practically born in the staging lanes. Her earliest memories aren’t of playgrounds or birthday parties—they’re of pit lanes, burnout smoke, and the Caruso Racing Team. “Just being at the track watching my dad race,” she says. “Wanting to be in a race car myself—that’s the whole reason for my passion.” That passion, inherited and honed, has driven her from Junior Dragsters through Top Alcohol Dragsters and into the most competitive class in professional drag racing: NHRA Pro Stock. It’s a world of thousandths-of-a-second margins and unforgiving machinery. And in 2023, Camrie made her mark with a historic first Pro Stock win at the Arizona Nationals. While Caruso’s grit is self-evident, there’s another side of her arsenal that’s less visible but just as critical: business savvy. A graduate of SUNY Empire State College with degrees in Business Finance and Marketing, Camrie understands that in today’s NHRA, racing is as much about marketing as mechanics. “I say this all the time—college is not real life,” she says. “Yes, having degrees goes a long way. But life and experiences are where it matters.” In an industry that survives on sponsorship dollars, Camrie Caruso knows that charisma, relationships, and ROI talk louder than trophies. “Relationships and business-to-business is how it all goes round,” she says. “Finding what they need is where you will succeed.” Her approach is strategic—more CEO than daredevil. It’s a mindset that helps her navigate sponsorship deals, build brand partnerships, and keep her team on the road. After all, winning races is expensive. And making it to the next one often depends on who’s paying the fuel bill.
