Before Jared made his way to full size formula cars, he was a regional winner and semifinalist in the Red Bull Driver
search in 2005. The Red Bull Driver search was a program like “American Idol” for racecar drivers. Red Bull was trying to
find an American driver to race for them in the World Championship in Formula One. Jared was involved with Red Bull for
some time after the search, but dropped them early in 2007.
In his early years Jared raced pavement and dirt oval karts, completing kart racing with 86 feature wins. While racing
karts he raced in the most prestigious circuit, the World Karting Association [WKA] Dunlop Road Racing Series. He ran
both Sprint and Enduro World National races at Gateway, Putnam Park (Indianapolis), Road America and Daytona
With this experience in hand Jared is ready for a successful 2011 season, racing asphalt late model stock cars full-time
for Win Smith Racing Enterprises. Win Smith Racing Enterprises is a racing organization out of central Kentucky that has
been involved in the sport since 1976, having success in many different forms of automobile racing.
Jared in conjunction with Win Smith Racing Enterprises are hoping to run a limited Camping World Truck or Nationwide
Series schedule should funding become available

Jared Smith is a graduate from the University of Kentucky Gatton School of Business. He completed his 4 year Business Administration degree in 3 1/2 years with a 3.9 GPA. At the age of only 21, he has 13 years of racing experience. In his career he has been extremely successful in many different types of racecars. Jared currently races an asphalt late model, which he competes regularly against NASCAR drivers who race late models as their schedule permits. In 2009 Jared accomplished his first late model pole position and had two top five finishes with seven top ten finishes in eleven starts. There was only one DNF and two races he was unable to qualify due to mechanical issues during practice. One highlight of the 2009 season was finishing eleventh at the Touchstone Energy 100 in his first start at The Salem Speedway in Salem IN. Jared fought back after a mid race incident that cost him time in the pits. This track has long been recognized as one of the toughest tracks in the country. Before racing the asphalt ovals, Jared competed in the Sports Car Club of America [SCCA] Formula First. He had two wins in the Formula Car Magazine Challenge Series at Nelson Ledges (Ohio) and Gingerman Raceway (Michigan) (http://formula-first.org). Jared also holds the current track record at Gingerman Raceway and Gateway (Missouri) previously having held the track records at Indianapolis Raceway Park (Indianapolis), Road America (Wisconsin) and Grattan (Michigan). Jared has won six Formula First races, and also has won three races in Formula Vee. |

Jeremy Levenson has always dreamed of making a career out of racing. As a
graduate of Universal Technical Institute he has been able to pursue a career
not only as an actual racing driver, but also as a technician specializing in high
performance racing machinery. He is currently a technician and race mechanic
at SR Racing in Lexington Kentucky, as well as an up and coming racecar driver
for Win Smith Racing Enterprises.
Jeremy began racing go karts at the age of 13 in the Ohio Valley Karting
Association and would do so until he left to pursue a degree in automotive
technology. At the age of 18 he attended the prestigious Universal Technical
Institute in Avondale Arizona. While racing karts Jeremy would accumulate
approximately 70 top 10’s, 30 top 5’s and 25 podiums. This was quite a feat
considering he only raced for 5 years in 162 different races. He was also
involved in the Red Bull Driver search during his karting career, from which he
was unfortunately eliminated in the regional round. The Red Bull Driver Search
was a program created by Red Bull to find an American driver to compete in the
Formula One World Championship. Although this was a defeat, it allowed him to
compare himself to arguably the best drivers in the nation.

After graduating from the Universal Technical Institute, Jeremy landed a job at the Bondarant Racing School of High Performance
Driving. After one year of work as a mechanic and test driver at Bondarant he was offered a job with the highly regarded Brooks
Associates Racing Incorporated who contested in the The Atlantic Championship supported by the Indy Racing League.
The team won the 2008 Atlantic Championship presented by Cooper Tire, but the team shut down due to lack of sponsorship
shortly thereafter. Having only traveled four months with a professional race team, Jeremy learned that racing is not only about
teamwork and talent but also that it is impossible to maintain the level of expertise necessary to be successful without a strong
financial backing.
Returning home, Jeremy began work with SR Racing where he has once again taken on the role of a traveling racing technician,
constantly working on becoming more skilled as a mechanic and trying to better his understanding of the inner working of modern
racing vehicles. Jeremy continues to pursue further education, planning to complete his degree in Aerospace Engineering by
2016 while continuing to work for SR Racing.
Finally this past summer while pursuing his education and working as a race team mechanic, opportunity presented itself for
Jeremy to become a professional racing driver. Win Smith Racing Enterprises has offered Jeremy a development driver deal for
the 2011 racing season, driving their asphalt stock cars. The team will contest in local short track events along with some CRA
Super Series events.
