I ultimately ended up as the youngest player on the US National team that inducted softball into the Olympics in Despite loving the sport I was playing, nothing was as great as being at a racetrack.
Ryan Hunter-Reay. He was the first person I have ever met that loves all the same things as I do. So, here I am now, still at the racetrack and my plan is to dial in race fans on paddock life. My blog will be a little bit of everything, photo essays, videos, and straight up blogging. Hope you follow me! Of course, the part owner and driver for All-American Girl Racing is following in familiar footsteps by getting her early pavement experience at Long Beach.
Despite it being her first pavement start, Gordon will participate as one of six racers in the professional category that start the race 30 seconds behind the celebrity division. If I can minimize my mistakes on the track, I should be in good shape. This is such a different beast than I am used to in the dirt. They are fast little machines. Beccy Gordon just might be an accident waiting to happen Friday on the streets of downtown Long Beach.
That made them the first all-female team in the race's history to complete one of the most grueling endurance tests in motor sports. The way she learned how to drive, though, is as untamed as the terrain in the Mexican desert that she conquered two years ago. Passing is not something that happens a whole lot in off-road racing.
But whenever she happened to come up on a slower driver, she gives them a tap, a signal to let them know that it's time to move over and let her by.
Those kinds of tactics, though, might not play well on a narrow, twisty street course, like the one she will have to navigate today during today's qualifying session, which will set the starting lineup for Saturday's lap race. This whole experience, Gordon said, has been "surreal. And finally she's getting a chance. But she's not just in the race. But being considered a pro is also a huge disadvantage for her because she will be starting 30 seconds behind the celebrity field, which includes Raymond Cruz "The Closer , William Fichtner "Prison Break" and Wilmer Valderrama "That '70s Show".
That's a lot of time to give up for someone like Gordon, who never has done anything like this. Still, she hasn't ruled out winning the whole thing. I think I can find a way to keep up with him, I will be fine," Gordon, 29, said. There's a difference between drivers and racers.
Anyone can drive. It takes someone special to go out there and race. And if I am racing in it, I want to win it. Just like Gordon's brother, Hunter-Reay has driven in the big race during the Grand Prix of Long Beach, so he's given her pointers on where to brake and shift on Long Beach's 1.

Meet Heather Mishell Bonanni of Laguna Niguel who not only rides, but she races competitively - and she is pretty darn good, too. Here is a closer look at this daredevil. A: Watching my husband race. I have always enjoyed motor sports, and off-road racing was right up my alley. A: That you can drive over the most rugged, dangerous terrain in Mexico for hours on hours, push your body and mind farther than they have ever been pushed, get dirtier than your 3-yearold playing in a pile of wet sand and mud, cross the finish line completely exhausted and still want to do it all over again.
Not only want to do it all over again, but cannot wait to do it all over again! A: Yes, at the Baja last year. The race was going through the infamous pine forest and this was my section. This section had not been raced through in years. I was feeling like I was in the groove, got a little too comfortable and hit head-on into a deep rut. I broke the left front trailing arm off the body and limped it in to the next pit where the BFG guys welded us back together and we sent the next girl on her way.
I ended up having a concussion that made me pretty loopy for about four days and a compressed disc.
