Well the Ladies GT series with special built Panoz cars comes to mind...
I LIKE the ladies class. I am using it as a recruiting too. "Come on,
you can drive in Ladies class so the guys won't know who slow you
went!" ;-) Seriously, being a novice is VERY intimidating for
women.. The most often heard excuse not to race is "I'll be embarrassed
driving so slow"
Now that I have gotten a LOT better I plan to start competing in open
classes.
