The "Heart Like a Wheel," movie was pretty good. I always wondered why Shirley didn't become more well known. I guess the information age now is the difference, I mean look how well known Danica Patrick is, and yet, Shirley won 3 NHRA racing Championships and Danica hasn't won anything! Then again, dragster racing today STILL isn't as popular as NASCAR or INDY, but still...Shirley was flying down that strip!! Great lady, great Champion!! Hope her personal life ended up happy! She deserved that
step aside muldowney, ashley force is the new sheriff in town.i'll also give you some advice, be carefull in your interviews, your mouth is killing your popularity.
Yeah but Shirley Is The Bounty Huntress !!!!!! Who are you to give her advise ? Shirley has always voiced her opinion and all ways will . You sound like a nascar fan lol . I would love to see the both of them go down the track at the same time it would be one hell of a race .
She is truely my idol, Im a jr dragster racer, and I have been for about 6 years now.
I look at her and I cant even imagine what she went through for this sport. But I'd put up with anything for it too, its not just a hobby anymore, its a passion♥
She is the MOTHER of DRAG RACING, and dont even try to tell me different, ha. (:
I watched them filming scenes from the movie about here back in the day. It looked silly in production but it didn't come out badly in the film. She could drive in real life!!
You have a good one. I remember her. What a storybook thing. Not only was this the first (& only) Woman to excel at drag racing, she was SO PRETTY!!! I watch my own video now and then, just to look upon her face!
SHE WAS PRETTY! but she got in a nitro fire and she is burned head to toe now! i am the next top fuel champion of the world! any man or woman that tells or says differant is a d-bag. and i will put my hart on the line on that one mr!
She was in a few fires non like what was in the movie though . If your female i would love to see you win the top spot and have that Wally on your Shelf . There is a few on my familys mantel . There is no other feeling my friend .
Dont forget the super stock and prostck gals of the 60s and 70s . , and PAULA Murphy and Shirley Sheenhan to name a couple . Barb hamilton In that willys .just because it is not top fuel or funny car it dont mean they didnt excel . Some are legends with out getting behind the wheel as in Pam Hardy and Linda Vaughn
