List of female drag racers
I need a list, for a project I'm playing with, of female drag racers both past and present, cars or bikes, "Pro" classes only because I want to keep the list manageable. I realize classes have changed over the years too so for past candidates just give me your favorite.
 I'll start... Shirley Muldowney Melanie Troxel Angelle Savoie Karen Stoffer and... Thank you,

I believe Shirley Shahan was known as the Drag-On-Lady.
Paula Murphy drag raced (first woman licensed for funny cars), set land speed records, first woman to drive at Indy, also road raced successfully. Another was Barbara Hamilton, first woman to get an NHRA license for driving blown cars. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
