That's the thing.

In a race, she can punch out a couple of really quick laps. Qualy, nowhere. Over a stint, all over the place.

She's been in the game long enough to be able to mentally string a stint together, but if the boffins or the car aren't coming to the party, she's left with nothing to show for it.

Managed a 16th on Sunday though, which went largely unnoticed. I presume it had a decent set of Super Softs on it though.

peckstar has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Typical Holden in motorsport, cant develop what they want, so they buy it.

Where were they in the Harvey norman supergirls days, where was there cash when supercars put together a sponsorship deal to get a woman full time in supercars. non existent

Why dont they put some cash into Karting or F4 and develop a driving pool. that will help real diversity in motorsport and not tokenism.

An all women team for a team of one would be only SdS..

I hope the rumors are true and she ends up in a Triple 8 cars. It'll be a good because she'll have some decent machinery under that isnt a hand me down but on the flip side there can be no excuses for performance having one of the best cars in the field.

One wonders if Holden isnt involved in getting SdS into a Triple 8 car. It would fit in with their current marketing strategy

I'd suggest Danny Watts is better qualified to meet Holden's current marketing strategy.
