I'm not being chauvinistic, but it's a common problem with alot of women, I think she has the skill set and technique, but not a complete package (imagine how fast<slow> she would be with 50lbs. of balast added?!?).
I think Catherine Legg is a better driver, of course Michele Mouton and I think Lynn St. James was better than them all!! To wit: 1992 Indianapolis 500 Rookie of the Year (first woman to ever win that award) Seven Indianapolis 500 starts in nine years, including six consecutive starts (1992 - 1997) Qualified sixth for 1994 Indy 500 (highest qualifying position for a woman until Danica Patrick's fourth place in 2005 Indy 500) Best finish at Indy was eleventh in 1992.

Oldest driver in the field (53) of the 2000 Indy 500 Raced in 15 Indy Racing races including Fed-X CART Championship and Indy Racing Northern Light Series. Scored 2 Top-10 qualifying spots; 1 Top-10 finish Held 31 international and national closed circuit speed records over a 20-year career. Raced twice ('89, '91) in the Biggest Endurance race in the world; The 24 Hours of Le Mans (France) The 24 Hours of Daytona (won GTO Team Drive Class in '87 & '91) Also raced (9 times) in the famous 12 Hours of Sebring Endurance race (won GTO Team driver Class in '91) Raced in 53 SCCA Trans-Am races with 7 Top-5 finishes and raced in 62 IMSA GT races with 6 wins and 17 Top-5 and 37 Top-10 finishes.
