I am impressed!

But now I cannot use the lack of successful women in road racing as proof that women drivers SUCK.

She's 16 now, so they'll have to update the shirts.  I remember when she schooled me the first time.  I think she was 11 or so and on a pink 125.   :'(

Legal for what?  Moto-racing?  are you saying she should be disqualified?

Speaking of being legal, EM used to be prohibited from running AFM at Sears/Infineon because the track's insurer requires that riders be 16 y/o.  She could compete at Thunderhill and Buttonwillow though.  The funny part is that one of those tracks (I think maybe Buttonwillow?) has a rule that no one under 16 is allowed to be on a pit bike.  So it ended up that she was allowed to do a 150+ out on the track, but couldn't ride an electric scooter or 50cc pitbike around.   [laugh]

Well, my point was that the Hannah Montana crowd might find her appealing.  You might be sitting in the stands next to a bunch of girls wearing Power Puff Girls gear.

Far better than the flatbillers and the suction cup mohawk squids currently attending AMA events.

I second the awesomeness!

But she'll need Pascarella to dump the 848 a few more times to win, that dude is en fuego.
