Salt Lake City
Lara is the co-owner of the CA Sport and has
successfully driven at the professional level since
2006. Lara's responsibilities include partner
relations, marketing and the many logistics of
motorsports.
For Lara the road to professional racing started
in her Dad's garage where she helped rebuild
hot-rods, including her first car a 57 Chevy. Upon
completing college with a degree in fine art and
communication she spent her time developing
successful advertising and healthcare businesses. A
trip to the Bondurant Road Racing school gave her a
chance to renew her love of racing. Since then she
has competed in an array of sprint and endurance
races. Originally from Southern California, Lara
and her two sons live in Salt Lake City, Utah. Lara
also enjoys windsurfing, water-skiing, snowboarding
and snow-skiing, horses, gardening, cooking and

named Utah's Professional Athlete of the Year in
2010.

Lara Heads to Madrid Spain for the Ford Focus
Global Test Drive
Salt Lake City resident, Lara Tallman, is using
her talents to give back to the community and the
world. As a successful professional race-car
driver, Lara has recently been voted Utah’s
Best of State Professional Athlete for 2010. Now,
Ford Motor Company has chosen Tallman as one of 100
participants from around the world to travel to
Spain to test drive the all new Ford Focus. In
addition to sending Tallman to Spain, Ford is
donating $10,000 to the charity of her choice.
Tallman has chosen Girls, Inc. as the organization
that will receive the donation from Ford. Girls,
Inc. is a nonprofit organization that inspires and
empowers girls to reach their full potential and
understand and assert their rights. As a successful
woman in a male-dominated sport, Tallman knows that
there is nothing that should hold a girl back from
accomplishing her goals. Tallman recently returned
from Daytona with her racing team where they placed
5th out of a field of 47. Now, she is on her way to
Spain to test drive the new Ford Focus. To win this
exciting opportunity and the $10,000 for Girls,
Inc. Tallman submitted a video explaining why she
deserves to go to Spain and why Girls, Inc.
deserves Ford’s support. You can view her
