CCS Racing at Daytona: The Chick Report

There were four women on the CCS grids at Daytona on Sunday, March 1, 2009: Melissa Paris, Meghan Stiles, Karen Grujic and Anissa Burachynsky. Thanks to talented AMA photographer Brandon Bones, my buddy and a big supporter of the lady racers, for the heads up on the Femmoto race. It was Melissa that took first in the all female motorcycle race, then Meghan Stiles, Karen Grujic and Anissa Burachynsky. Great job to all the ladies!
