NASCAR

Decker attempted to qualify for her first NASCAR race with her sister Paige Decker and her cousin Natalie Decker in the Martinsville race.

Decker started 31st and finished 27th.

Personal life

Decker with her sister Paige

Decker is the daughter of Allen Decker who comes from a family of snowmobile racing riders. Four Decker brothers raced snowmobiles in the 1970s; Allen Decker was a factory rider for Bombardier along with teammate Jacques Villeneuve for the 1979-80 season. The Decker family raced snowmobiles against the Danica Patrick family during the 1970s. Sue Decker, Claire's aunt, introduced Danica Patrick's parents.

Her sister Paige Decker also races for her family's Decker Racing team. They are joined on the team by their younger cousin NASCAR Drive for Diversity driver Natalie Decker. Natalie's father (and Claire's uncle) is Chuck Decker, the former owner of the Eagle River Derby Track which hosts the World Championship Snowmobile Derby.
