Might mention the late Kara Hendrick who was a helluva Midget racer out west......

Midget 89 · 3/4/12, 10:07 PM

Why no mention of Taylor Ferns, 16, winner of a USAC title last year in the D1 Midgets. She will be competing his year in the Silver Crown division, the USAC National Midgets, pavement sprinters and CSA stock cars. She has won more USAC races than any other moman.

Ask some of the guys who post on the Sprint Car photo section, I bet they could help.

I like that Taylor Ferns she gave Dave Darland a run for the money at Kokomo last summer. That midget had it's tongue stickin out the end of that race. She gave it everything it had

Back in 99 I saw Beca Anderson (??) at the 360 ToC race at Lima. She was a racer, you try to intimidate her by putting a RR on her you got it back in the next turn. She finished 2nd or 3rd at that race.

Becca is quite a racer! I've seen her race and win many time in URC and 358 Sprints. I think she has something like 10 URC feature wins to date.

How about USAC Midget driver, Bev Griffis. I believe she was the first woman to Win a USAC sanctioned event. It was at the Speedrome.
