Michele Mouton was pretty good. Perhaps that can be ascribed to the fact that there was no trace of feminist bullshit in her outlook, that I can find. She credits her father's support for her success and wasn't inspired towards motorsport through misandrist spite or insecurity.
"In my mind I never tried to beat them [men]. I tried to be at their level, and tried not to be ridiculous."
There's also Lyn St James, Christina Nielsen, and Lilian Bryner from sports car racing.
All of them regularly contended for race wins, Christina won two IMSA championships, and were equally as fast and reliable as the men they raced against.
Even better, none of them marinated in any insecurity or railed against the "patriarchy". They just tried to prove their skills at what they wanted to do.
And instead of using their gender to divide people, they've actually helped other female racers get better, reach their goals, and assist them with logistics and sponsorship. They actually lift people up.
Ive been led to understand that in very extreme endurance events, women’s physical natures allow them to compete equally with men. Think here of like, 10 x Ironman triathlons. To give an idea of how long that would be, the run portion is 262 miles. The bike I suppose would be over 1,000 miles. These events are, obviously, not high-participation sports, but apparently at extreme distances like that the physical advantage of men vanishes, even taking into consideration the fact that such a distance would be impossible for like 99 percent of people regardless of gender.
Have women outperformed men in any sport or are physical differences too big to overcome especially at the top 2%?

They're all great role models.

Is professional backstabbing a thing? They'd be good at that.
No, see the earlier post about poker we're better at manipulation if we put our minds to it lol
