In 1965 Shirley Muldowney became the first woman to race dragsters with the National Hot Rod Association. She was known on the race circuit as Shirley "Cha-Cha" Muldowney, and after racing funny cars in the early 1970s, she turned to racing Top Fuel dragsters.
Shirley was the first driver to win three world titles, and her life was depicted in the 1983 movie “Heart Like a Wheel.” In 1984, Muldowney experienced a severe crash and was out of racing for almost two years, but returned to win races, and in 1998 she set a speed record for the International Hot Rod Association. Shirley is considered one of the greatest drivers in drag racing history.
After 1973 Shirley dropped the use of the nickname "Cha-Cha," and said "There is no room for bimboism in drag racing."
In 1990 Shirley was inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame.
The above illustration is of Shirley's 1987 dragster.
