But really, the first woman to win in NHRA Top Fuel Funny Car?

Shirley Muldowney was the first.
"Cha Cha" never won a NHRA FUNNY CAR race.

My bad. After research (and correcting my poor memory), I incorrectly recalled her win in the 1971 Summer Nationals to be NHRA,, not IHRA.

Also I recalled the Funny Car blower explosion accident to be 1972, instead of the correct year of 1973.

It ain't fun having old-timers disease. :respect:

I think she looks like her dad with implants and a wig. IMO, she ain't the purtiest race car driver around.

Gregg, I don't think the photos do her true justice. In person she's considerably more attractive than Danna Kapatrick (who I see at the grocery store about every month or two).
