All things being equal with the cars, a female driver should have a weight advantage over her male counterpart. >2:1 in some cases. I have often wondered why women are not more represented in the motor sports. If a woman can pilot a top fueler well (remember Cha-Cha) a woman can drive anything.

Physical endurance. Long races at high speeds, especially on the oval tracks preferred in U.S. racing, put a lot of G-force on the driver.
