As usual, the 2012 Knoxville Nationals Queen is familiar with Knoxville Raceway. But 19-year-old Haley Arnold (Sedalia, MO) is a little more familiar than normal – she’s taken laps around the famous half-mile. Arnold is a 360 sprint car driver that participates periodically in the ASCS Midwest circuit and has ventured up to Knoxville on occasion, even making a feature last year.

Finishing first-runner up was LaNay Walker (Delavan, MN), and second-runner up was Jenna Arends (Conrad, IA). Miss Congeniality was Courtney Kolpin (Ames, IA).
