Is one of the youngest barrel racers to ever compete at the Wrangler NFR at age 11 in 1988. The youngest ever to qualify was Ann Lewis at age 10 in 1968 (Lewis won the world title despite not competing as she was killed in a car accident prior to the start of the NFR)…Rachael's mom, Judy Myllymaki, is one of the oldest barrel racers to qualify for the NFR. Judy was 54-years old in 1998. June Holeman holds the record for oldest barrel racer at the age of 62 set in 2005.
