AFM 2009

2009 Was my first season with AFM.  I'd heard that they were piloting a women's only class early on in the season, so I got my license and passed my new racer school and with my husband/crew chief's help got my bike prepped. I started in the middle of the season, but still got some valuable experience.

For my first year, I rode Formula AFemme (a great experience!) and Novice Clubman with my 2007 GSX-R750.  In AFemme I finished 8th in points out of 17 riders for the year.  Results are below.

Videos

I created a couple of videos using the GoPro video camera, to give you an idea of what it's like "on board."  Video 1 is filmed at Thunderhill Raceway in Willows, California.  Video 2 is actual race footage at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California.
