How very sad, I always was fond of her. Thanks for the notice. Never knew she raced a killer whale though ("Orca") :lol: !

RIP.   She  is often  overlooked by blinkered writers.  With so many successes on  both two  wheels and four.

To those who could not understand how they  were beaten on hill climbs by her practise times she said any fool can go fast on the straight,, she concentrated on the corners.

I wonder what will happen  to her vast collection of  trophies photographs  and the collection of cars.

She did sail under the radar somewhat, but she was a very skilled driver. She will be missed.
