To be honest, I've never been able to figure out why women don't take over motorcycle racing. They are lighter than men (most of the time), have good stamina and decent strength to weight ratios. They are certainly competitive enough...
better reaction times too, and iirc they handle g-forces better due to their (again most of the time) more compact frames. men are supposed to be better at three dimensional thinking though which could go to explain why they aren't more prevalent in racing. those guys are doing lots of unconscious math out there. that said i hope she kicks ass!
