Let's slow down here a little. I don't see families participating and
working the registration, course, pits, and sharing cars in these
PROFESSIONAL (not sure about amateur/professional break in NHRA) races. I
do see ladies classes in local oval track racing for many of the reasons
that have been mentioned here - getting people involved in amateur (family?)
racing.

That brings up an interesting point. Are there ladies classes in SCCA road
racing? Are there ladies classes in the IRL, CART, F1, NASCAR, NHRA? In
other words do other motorsports regard women as inferior drivers and create
a special class for them to play?
