Born and raised in Sandusky, Ohio, Chris has always been a local kid with a dream. Andrews attended his first race with his parents a month after his birth. He began racing at the age of nine in karts all around Ohio. As a teenager, he raced karts, midgets and sprint cars, competing for his family team. During his early career in the Attica Fremont Championship Series, Andrews won the 2007 410 Rookie of the Year (running up against Kyle Larson) for the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum in Knoxville, Iowa.

Along with that great achievement, he was the 2009 & 2018 Attica Raceway Park Champion. Chris has also raced in many World of Outlaws and All-Star Circuit of Champions sprint car series events. He has also competed in Kings Royal at Eldora Speedway and the annual Chili Bowl Nationals in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Along with chasing his passion on the dirt, he has also built quite an empire on concrete. Along with being the President/CEO of Ohio Truck Sales and Fleet Capital, Chris wishes to continue his passion on dirt with the new addition of Chris Andrews Racing.
