Well, I get the "SCCA WRX owner" emails. So I opened my email last night, and whaddya know... This issue has an article about women in performance rally. And (not at all surprisingly), a Subaru article about women in performance rally just happens to mention our own SubieGal! Actually, more than "mentions". Jamie (and Burnsie too!) composed half the article. :) Lots of stuff about how Jamie's currently the only woman driver in SCCA ProRally, how she's kicking almost all the boys' butts, etc, etc. :banana:
Anyway, just wanted to say congrats Jamie!!

The only woman? Me thinks not! Maybe the only one driving a Subaru?

Ummmm, yeah, it would. ;) However, I'd deleted the email yesterday, before I thought about posting on NASIOC, so that's why I didn't, originally.
However, I just found a link to it from SubieGal's website:

I don't know. :( This was the quote I was referring to, though:
There are a handful of women who co-drive, but as of this season, Thomas is the only female driver competing in the Championship, where she currently sits third in the Production GT class point race after three rounds.

I think this is true this year as regards the ProRally teams. There are a few women who are driving in ClubRally. For proof go to the scca.org or specialstage.com sites and find this year's points listing. I'm too lazy to do it.

Okay Lazy. #1. You got me on a technicality (IMHO). When I think of Pro Rally, I usually don't think of "PRO" rally, rather, stage rallying or performance rallying which includes Pro and Club.
#2. Lesley Suddard is tied for 3rd in Production in "PRO" rally ;)
