Fast Women Friday #3 SEMA Edition

//  by 

Another Fast Women Friday!   This week is the SEMA Special Edition, so I’m sure there’s tons of cool new things to share!

Last week was a slow week, but we heard from a few new women for Fast Women Friday #2.

  1. Kelly Morris RacingKelly Morris stopped by to share her Kelly Morris Racing page.  Kelly is building her own drag racing ride, and helps her dad in his shop working on and building cars for drag racing competition.  Kelly has big dreams to pursue in racing, and she’s just getting started on her journey.  Stop by and check her out on her Facebook page, and stick around to stay tuned into her career progression.
  2. Feel the Horsepower Chocolate BarsGina Woods returned to share her Feel the Horsepower Chocolate Bar project.    Tired of the same terrible food choices that typically represent the average track/bike rally events, Gina wanted to create something she could take with her on the go for a healthier, tastier option.   These new healthy chocolate bars are not only delicious, but a great nourishing option for the horsepower-fueled lives of those constantly on-the-go and living life in the fast lane.
  3. Flyin Faith from WA11 year-old Flyin’ Faith, a racer from Washington, stopped in to share her website with us.   Faith has already been racing for 6 years, and is doing a great job!   She was named rookie of the year this season in the bandit division of the Bandolero’s at Spartan Speedway, finishing 3rd in points and attending every race.

It’s  FAST WOMEN FRIDAY #2!

Thanks for a great first week for #FastWomenFriday!  We had a great turnout for the inaugural link-up party!  A few highlights if you missed it:

  1. Tribute to Marie LaurentRachel from SpeedQueens sent over a great tribute on French rally racer Marie Laurent.   Marie pioneered the rally racing circuits in 1970’s, and Rachel’s post about Laurent highlights her career in the sport, her departure from racing in the early 1980’s for family, all the way to her death in 2015 at the age of 71.  The piece is a beautiful tribute to ensuring Marie’s legacy is never forgotten.
  2. Megan Meyer Drag IllustratedMegan Meyer shared with us her Drag Illustrated blog that talks about her shift into licensing for Top Alcohol Dragster, her successful class-debut this summer, and her 2016 racing plans- including the launch of an “augmented reality” marketing program with her team that she developed to make it even easier to interact with fans at the racetrack.
  3. Shea HolbrookRoad racing/drag racing crossover racer, Shea Holbrook represented Women in Motorsports at the Annual Women’s Sports Foundation Salute in NYC this week.  She joined 7x Indy 500 driver and mentor, Lyn St. James, to represent motorsports in the salute.   Holbrook is a past recipient of the “Women’s Sports Foundation’s Women in the Winners Circle Project Podium Grant,” designed to help young racers overcome the business challenges unique to motorsports.
  4. Open Road RadioWide Open RadioCourtney Lambert from Wide Open Radio and Gina Woods from Open Road Radio both stopped by to share their pages.  Both ladies are longtime popular radio personalities on two of the largest motorcycle enthusiast radio programs on the air for the biker community.
