Teenage girl raring to race

NORTH VAN-
os COUVER may spawn
ae the next Janet Guthrie
in car racing if all goes
well for 16-year-old
Joanna Motylewsky.

Motylewsky took
classroom and track training
at the end of March, and
after three qualifying races
will graduate from the
novice level of race-car driv-
ing.

She is no stranger to rac-
ing —- her father was in the
European rallies in the late
50's and early 60's.

“When I was little, my
mom used to buy me dolls
and my dad would give me
cars,"' said Motylewski.

“She always had con-
tact,'’ said Janusz
Motylewski, Joanna's  f[a-
ther, who also has no
qualms about his daughter
racing.

“It's a Jot safer to race
cars than to drive on the
Streets -~ with all the acci-
dents it's much more dan-
gerous on the streets,’ he
said.

After the training is com-
plete, Joanna competes in
novice races, one of which is
a three-hour endurance race.
The final qualifying race in
July is similar to the For-
mula One race where cars
can reach a speed of 160
mph. The cars used are
safety-equipped and

modified for racing but with NEWS photo Stuart Davis
