                                          Racing driver.

     Sue Glass had a car accident when she was eight so she didn’t like driving. When she grew up this was a problem, because she got a job with a car company.

He drove her round corners at 100 mph and she loved it.

     Then she heard about a special motor racing course. She did the course with five men and was amazed when she got top marks. She says: “I think I did well because I listened to everything the teacher

said. I needed to because I was so afraid. The men often didn’t listen. The best moment was my first championship race. I didn’t win but I came fourth. I beat 20 men. I love the excitement of

motor racing but it’s a dangerous sport and I’m always very frightened.”
