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.
