The event, commemorating 50 years after the enactment of Title IX, explores the successes, struggles, and contributions of unheralded women in auto racing. Panelists with diverse backgrounds in the automotive industry, racing history, and academia discuss the historiography of women in motorsports, underlining the need for more in-depth research and documentation. The conversation highlights the importance of oral histories, the roles of women beyond driving, such as in ownership and track management, and the necessity of increased opportunities and sponsorship for women racers.
