This is now the fourth Women in Motorsports class we’ve been fortunate to feature. Each year, we have such amazing conversations with equally incredible women doing kickass work in our engine building and racing industry. Some have been at this stuff their whole lives, while others more recently found how rewarding this work can be, but each of them contribute greatly to the fabric that makes up this tight-knit community. From engine builders to racers and everything in-between, we congratulate this year’s featured women. More on their stories can be found in the links below and on our YouTube channel soon.
