Iโve contemplated whether or not to speak on this, but my heart is telling me I should.
Iโm going to start off by saying I am by no means perfect. Nobody is. I got back into racing 5 years ago and since then I have learned a lot and Iโm still learning everyday.
With that being said, as a woman in motorsports, I feel itโs my responsibility to be a role model for young and upcoming women in this sport. I was a Division I cheerleader in college, and my job was to represent the University at the highest level. Every move you make someone is watching. On and off the field. The same applies in racing. People are always watching: sponsors, teams, fans, and kids.
I work hard every day to earn respect in this sport. The only way that happens is through on track performance and thatโs my main focus. I look forward to the day when a female driver in racing isnโt different, itโs expected.
I understand how difficult it is to secure sponsorship in this sport. Iโm fully funded based on the partners I bring in each year. Itโs a grind and I know many others are in the same position. I made a promise to myself that I would do it the right way. In 10 years I want to look back and be proud of how I carried myself and hope that I inspired young girls along the way, even if that means I donโt make it as far in the sport as I hope I do.
This is not to bring hate to anyone but rather to speak on a topic that is important to me. Please be kind. โฅ๏ธ
My dad ended up in the back of an ambulance once because people were running out of fuel and no open red was thrown. Single file restart and someone out of fuel caused chaos. That was stupid, Outlaws. Embarrassing stuff.
Come on @FloRacing. Do better. Cut out at @PortRoyalSpdway on the last lap so we donโt get to see @robbiekendall55 win his first ever port Royal show?? Absolutely terrible streaming.
@ShawnaRobbins_9 If you bought your ticket in advance you got a FREE pit pass upgrade. That was well advertised as well from the speedway and sanctioning body.
.@BillRose6_Rose not getting an interview after going 3rd quick, beating Gravel to win his Heat, and making the Dash is the biggest crime in the history of auto racing.
Screw hurry up mode. Give this man an E60 segment in between heats.
@Lily1pup@PortRoyalSpdway The outlaws have always made exceptions or waivers to this rule. Any driver at any time can ask โpermissionโ to run an event. This has happened many times over the series history.
