Monster truck teen takes sport to new heights

Rosalee Ramer is much like every other 15-year-old girl in Watsonville, Calif., except for one thing ? she spends her free time ?flying 10,000 pounds of truck through 30 feet of air.? That?s right ? Ramer drives monster trucks. The sophomore at Pacific Collegiate School (who also plays the piano of all things) pilots Detour ? a souped up 2010 Ford Ranger which she and her dad Kelvin built. She began changing tires at 8 years old, started learning to drive the big rigs at age 11 and competed in her first event at age 14. Ramer, who�hopes to earn a degree in mechanical engineering at Stanford, ?It?s definitely going to be part of my life for a long time,? Rosalee told the Santa Cruz Sentinel. ?It?s what I love.?
