Bailey Shea Williams, the Dixie Chopper-sponsored ATV quad racer, has a slate of at least a dozen races scheduled this spring and summer.

The 20-year-old blond rider is the daughter of Troy and Rina Williams of tiny Lock Springs (population 56) near Chillicothe, Mo. She is in her fifth season as a racing sensation on the Extreme Dirt Track National Series, where the majority of the time her competitors are all male.

Bailey also has made appearances on behalf of Dixie Chopper, including signing more than 3,000 autographs at the 2009 National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville.  This summer she is scheduled to appear at the Dixie Chopper booth at the Aug. 31-Sept. 2 Farm Progress Show in Boone, Iowa.
