Don’t sleep on the ladies of NHRA — some of the baddest drivers out there
Been going to NHRA events for years, and I gotta say… if you still think drag racing is some old boys’ club, you’re living under a rock.
These women flat-out RACE. Watching Brittany Force chase down a 3.6-second run in Top Fuel, or Erica Enders absolutely mop the field in Pro Stock — it’s the real deal. No gimmicks, no token entries, they’re out there winning championships on merit.
Last year at Charlotte I stood by a dad hoisting his daughter up on his shoulders, pointing down the track and saying, “That’s Brittany. Girls can drive Top Fuel too.” Thought that was the coolest damn moment.
And it’s not just the drivers. Half the tuners, clutch techs, even marketing crew hustling in the pits are women. NHRA feels miles ahead of a lot of other series in this respect.
So here’s to the ladies turning wrenches, pulling holeshots, and running quicker 60-foots than most dudes could dream of. The future looks pretty badass.
