Transgendered and professional motor sports just don't go together, do they ?

Personally, I think it's just plain weird. OTOH, that's a personal choice and I don't see a big issue from a libertarian POV. But I don't think any of my old drinking buddies, who love to watch them drive fast and turn left down at Dover Downs, would stomach it.

You think it's hot? Knowing what used to be down there?

Hehe, the title of this is misleading. I thought they were going to open up some kind of transgendered NASCAR league or something. ^_^ To which I would have said, WTF? Y?
But it's just an individual who wants to get back into racing. I think if she can go through all the training and do what she needs to do..... then... well, there shouldn't be an issue.

Somehow I can see an FtM more probably than a MtF, I dunno why... anyway it's not related to the sport, but it's up to someone to express themselves I guess. But did they bring it up (making it seem somewhat publicity-hungerous) or did it come up, uncover or whatever?
