Kim Crosby (born December 8, 1964) is an Americanstock car racing driver, professional driving instructor, andmonster truck driver. She is a former competitor in theNASCAR Busch Series and theARCA Re/Max Series.

Before she became a NASCAR driver, she served as a middle school principal inSlidell, Louisiana, resigning in December 2004 to focus full-time on her racing career. Kim has a master's degree in Educational Administration.

Crosby originally was adrag racer, competing in theNHRA andIHRA for fifteen years. She began oval racing in 2000 at theBuck Baker Driving School, where she graduated in the advanced class. She would later return to work at the school as an instructor at the school's satellites atBristol Motor Speedway,Atlanta Motor Speedway, andDarlington Raceway. She also ran the Florida Fast Trucks Series. Kim has also completed the Advanced Driving School atBob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving.

In 2003, she made her debut in theARCA RE/MAX Series, where her best finish came in her first start, a 21st atKentucky Speedway. She ran two more races that year in the ARCA Series. In 2004, she was signed to drive the #28 forBlack Cat Racing, but left the team during Speedweeks. She ended up making her Busch Series debut atTalladega Superspeedway, finishing 20th in the #51Boudreaux's Butt PasteDodge owned byWare Racing Enterprises. She ran three more races for Ware that season, her best finish coming in her Talladega debut. She closed out the year running forORTEC Motorsports, finishing 38th at theAaron's 312.

She signed to drive forGIC-Mixon Motorsports in 2005, driving the #24 Butt PasteChevrolet. Her best finish with this team was a 35th at Atlanta Motor Speedway. By mid-season, she left GIC and signed to drive the #26Chevrolet forKeith Coleman Racing, finishing 28th atDaytona International Speedway. After a very tumultuous time with KCR, Crosby resigned from the team to pursue other opportunities.

In 2006, it was announced she would run a part-time schedule forFrank Cicci Racing with Jim Kelly. She made her first and only start for the team in June at theMilwaukee Mile, starting 41st after crashing the ill-handling car during qualifying, then finishing 40th after suffering electrical problems and being forced to the garage early in the race. The team shut down shortly thereafter due to business and sponsorship issues, allowing Kim only the one ill-fated start for the team.

In 2008, she was listed as one of the drivers for the #15 truck forBilly Ballew Motorsports in theNASCARCraftsman Truck Series as a teammate toKyle Busch. Sponsorship never materialized, however, and Kim was unable to make a start for the team.

As of 2009, Crosby has been a driver forMonster Jam, piloting the monster trucks known asMonster Mutt Dalmatian andMadusa (normally driven by fellow extreme athleteDebrah Miceli) in Central America as part of Monster Jam's World Tour. She continues to pursue sponsorship for her own Monster Jam theme truck and plans to reenter the NASCAR ranks if the right opportunity arises.

Crosby is an avid outdoorswoman. When not racing, she prefers to be hunting, fishing, hiking, kayaking and camping. She currently resides in Kentucky.
