Four-time Top Fuel champion Shirley Muldowney has never lost her need for speed. And hopefully, in the future, the lady who revolutionized drag racing for professional female drag racers will get a chance to scratch an itch and do so by running faster than ever before in her life.
There's a plan on the table that could bring her to the Bonneville Salt Flats and allow her to run more than 460 miles per hour. She's got fingers, toes, and anything else she can cross, hoping for this dream to come true.
Muldowney, who was recently named to the National Motorsports Press Association Hall of Fame, admits running on Bonneville's Salt Flats has been a dream for as long as she can remember.
"That would fulfill a dream of mine that goes back to the '60s," Muldowney admitted.
