((From the time Marilyn Beasley first put on a helmet she knew auto racing was her passion. She also knew that it wouldn't be easy to make her way up in a traditionally male dominated sport. 12 years later the Seattle native is here in South Western Virginia, a move she said was necessary to make her dreams a reality.
1:42:23 I DON'T HAVE FALSE ILLUSIONS OF BEING DISCOVERED BY SOME GREATNESS OR ANYTHING TO THAT EFFECT. I JUST WANT TO BE ABLE TO RACE AND BE SUCCESSFUL AND WIN.
One of the first steps towards that goal was to enroll in the Finish Line Racing School being held at Martinsville this week. She says the banked tracks in the east are vastly different than the flat runs she was used to back home. The move to this area came a few months ago when her car owner Anne Croney was relocated here by her employer. Being a female hasn't made the endeavor any easier for Croney either.
2:31:22 IT'S VERY DIFFICULT IN THAT I DON'T HAVE ANY MENTORS, I'M PRETTY MUCH LEARNING BY THE SEAT OF MY PANTS SO EVERYTHING I DO I LEARN ON MY OWN, IT WOULD BE NICE IF I HAD A MENTOR BUT AH..ITS DIFFICULT.
The lack of role models hasn't stifled the pairs determination. Instead it has inspired them to search for an all female racing team to give local girls with an interest in motor sports an opportunity they didn't have.
1:41:12 SOME WOMEN ARE INTIMIDATED BY THE FACT THAT IT IS A MALE DOMINATED SPORT AND SOME WOMEN WHO SEE THAT SOME WOMEN ARE INVOLVED IN IT MIGHT WANT TO EXPLORE SOME OF THE IDEAS THAT THEY'VE HAD THAT MAYBE THEY CAN, CAUSE WOMEN CAN DO IT.
With or without a team the duo intends to race late model stock at South Boston before the end of the summer.
