Where are the female racers - Anonymous - 05-06-2005
seeing the other message about sandra ,who is still in my view ,the quickest female tt racer (until another female laps quicker on a 600),there seems to nobody in her class at present.
Only Anita Buxton this year in the solos...

hi Chris
here will be more females at the Manx Grand Prix later in the year, off the top of my head, Maria Costello (400), Carolynn Sells (400), Gail Musson (125), Elle Forrest (125/250), Marie Hodgson (newcomer 600), I'm sure there's some more but its early Sunday morning and the grey matter is struggling to come to terms with being awake never mind thinking, which is something that doesn't come easy to me!! Especially when posting on message boards LOL LOL ;-)
Cheers
Russ

I will be out on the 600 also mate! I would imagine Maria will be on a 600 also. See you soon

I know that Ms Sells ;-0 But I was naming the size of bike that all you 'chicks'
(;-0_) have the best chance of getting on the podium on, as you'll notice that second post only named the females that I think have a chance of getting on the podium at this stage.
Hope your listening in to the races today????

Yep, managed to get it on 1368AM on my little radio, it's a bit crackly but I couldn't get onto it through the internet today, same as lots of people I gather!
Don't worry, I won't be giving you a slap, besides, you've called me worse things other than 'quick chick'! Take it easy and see you soon I hope ;-)

One sidecar driver too, Ruth Laidlow. Ruth and her former passenger, Helen Sutherland were the first all female crew to finish a TT, last year. Hope HS is enjoying her holiday in france!
