NASCAR driver Zane Smith's wife, McCall Smith, recently shared a series of eye-catching photos from their vacation in Cabo San Lucas. The images were uploaded to McCall Smith’s Instagram account -@mccallkelli, where she has over 12,000 followers.

The post opens with McCall in a light, white-lime dress with floral details. The slideshow continues with scenic views from Cabo, photos with her husband Zane Smith, snapshots with friends, and multiple outfit changes throughout the trip. The caption read,

“the cabo trip i told my parents about. hahaha. but seriously, had such a great week with friends down in cabo. 💛#cabo #cabosanlucas.”

The Cabo trip photos come more than a year after Zane Smith and McCall Smith tied the knot in January 2024. The two have been together since their teenage years and got engaged in April 2022 during a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race weekend. McCall, 23, was raised in a motorsports family—her father Dwayne Gaulding is VP of operations at NTS Motorsports, and her brother Gray Gaulding is a former NASCAR driver.

Zane Smith, the 2022 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series champion, currently drives the No. 71 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 for Spire Motorsports in the NASCAR Cup Series. As of September 2024, Smith has scored three Top-10 finishes in the Cup Series, including a best result of second. Most recently, Zane competed in the NASCAR Cup Series at Bristol on April 13, finishing 27th after starting 18th. He completed 497 laps and took 10 points from the race. In their personal life, the couple shares a French bulldog named Kygo.
