Skyla Earnhardt

Early Life
Skyla was diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) when she was 16 years old.

Life
Becaue of her family's involvement in racing, Skyla wanted to get involved in the sport herself but wanted to be in a more 'behind-the-scenes' in which she decided to become a mechanic in NASCAR.

After getting what she needed to get in order to become an automotive mechanic, in 2008 she got a job with JR Motorsports in the NASCAR Nationwide Series as a mechanic for it's 88 Chevrolet.

In 2011, Skyla became a part time crew chief (as well as continuing to be a mechanic) in the Nationwide Series as she became a crew chief for whenever Dale Earnhardt Jr. would drive his 88 Chevrolet. She continued that role of being a crew chief up to the 2013 season where she also received crew chief duties for JRM driver Regan Smith (whenever Junior wasn't in the 88 Chevrolet).
