South African motorsport’s future has a new face – and she’s already in the fast lane
Chloe isn’t just another young driver chasing a dream. Her love for racing began before she could even reach the pedals. At just eighteen months old, Chloe swapped dolls for a battery-powered car, and by seven, she was competing in karts with the encouragement of her father, Barry, a former endurance kart racer.
After karting, Chloe moved to main circuit, to Formula M, where she won the Class C Championship, topped the Index of Performance, and was named Formula M Driver of the Year. Soon after, she stepped into the Formula Vee championship, a single-seater built for real wheel-to-wheel racing. It was a big shift – faster cars, closer competition, and no margin for error. She was also the youngest driver in the field and the only woman, but she settled in quickly and was well recognised in her Rookie year.
In 2025 she joined Pablo Clark Racing as a development driver in a BMW E46 330i.
It didn’t take long for her work with the team to pay off. In 2025, she became the first woman to win a BMW M-Performance race in Class F and earned a step up to Class E. This year, she’s participating in the BMW M-Performance NA Cup, Class D. People in the paddock have started paying attention. She now races with support from Pablo Clark Racing, Easy Equities, Autozone, LMS Electrical Contractors, Basically Branding and several other team sponsors, and is also featured regularly at motorsport events and exhibitions.
Away from the track, Chloe enjoys CrossFit and holds a brown belt in Karate. She also analyses telemetry data, reviews footage, and works closely with her team to understand every technical aspect of performance from tyre wear to aerodynamics.
Despite her busy schedule, she finds time to interact with followers online. Her Facebook, TikTok, and Instagram pages offer followers behind-the-scenes access to race-day preparations and track walks, as well as gym sessions and debriefs with her engineers.
Chloe’s determination extends beyond the track. This year will be a busy one for Chloe. She’s preparing to launch Racer Girl, her first fragrance, and is also building Classic Cars by Chloe, a project focused on bringing old vehicles back to life with the help of a skilled crew.
Her focus now is on mastering Class D in the BMW M-Performance, NA Cup and building experience that will eventually take her into international competition. She may still be at the start of her career, but there’s no question she’s steering South African motorsport into a new era.
