Sunny’s advice to young women:
“Listen to your inner voice. Don’t
listen to anybody else, because that
inner voice doesn’t go away. If you
don’t listen to it now, you’re going
to end up hearing it later.”

Sunny Hobbs was surprised when she was asked about the difficulties of being a woman race car driver. “ I am so accustomed to competing in this male-dominated sport,” she says, “that I forget how tough it is to do so, from other people’s perspective. I think I am just ‘used to’ being the only woman and have developed a way of handling it at the track that works for me.”
