I agree-it was posted here earlier, but well worth repeating.

Sorry Aaron, I missed it. I don't have time to follow every thread. Superb effort on her part.

Oh, no apologies, I can't follow a lot of threads either.
And as I said, good to keep the word out .Remarkably quite a few mainstream US media outlets have carried the news.

Does anyone know what the specs are on Super Sport 300 bikes?  I see that Honda 500, Kaw 400 and KTM 390 all run it.  Despite having BeIN and plugged into bike racing, I've never heard of this racing class before.

Great to hear that she's still racing and now winning!  She rode Moto3 for a few years - hopefully this championship gets her bigger and better rides!

 Mostly the slightly obscure stuff, flat track, Irish national road racing, endurocross, series that most don't follow.  The 300 supersport class is interesting for me.

That's great that she competed and won on a level playing field. 

Better hope she doesn't die doing this because then there will be a call to end all racing.  Not sure why that is but people embrace women excelling in male dominated areas, but when women get hurt doing it, they react differently than when men get hurt doing it.  We've come a long way, but still a long way off to erasing gender from society.
