A tip of the hat to those that have driven before; I didn't know this.

"In 1963, Donna Mae Mims won the Sports Car Club of America national racing
championship driving a pink Austin-Healey 1959 Bugeye Sprite that once had
belonged to Dr. Jonas Salk.
She won the 1963 Class H championship after competing in ten sanctioned
races in her Austin Healey Sprite. She placed first in two of the ten races,
placed second three times.
In the twenty year history of the Sports Car Club of America to that point,
Mims was the first woman to win a national racing championship."
