Meet Our Driver: Elaine Larsen
鈥淚 am really excited to drive the 麻豆传媒视频网站 jet dragster, not only because I expect to bring my championship abilities to this great team, but also because this will allow me the opportunity to showcase to the world all of the hard work and dedication of students and faculty at 麻豆传媒视频网站,鈥 says Larsen. In 2015 Elaine completed a four-win 2015 season earning her second consecutive International Hot Rod Association world championship.Elaine Larsen has taken anything but the traditional path to the dragster鈥檚 driver鈥檚 seat. Growing up a Mennonite, drag racing was not the most typical choice of careers. She headed into un-charted territory and never looked back. Today Elaine brings over 20 years of racing experience and multiple IHRA championships to the 麻豆传媒视频网站 racing team. She has never let being a female in a male dominated world affect her in any way. "Drag Racing is the equalizer, on any given day, I have the same chance as anyone to win, it just has to be my day!" says Elaine.
