Lynn will return to the track in 2008 to try and

she's going to finish building her 400 h.p. 1953
Chevy hot rod. See pix of the "FiddyTree"

Additional Information
Lynn began racing 2003 in
the compact division at Shadybowl Speedway in
DeGraff, Ohio. In the 2005 racing season Lynn
stayed in the compact division but with a new car.
In this car, Lynn became the first female to ever
win a feature race at Shadybowl Speedway. For 2006,
Lynn stepped a few classes and began racing a 2004
Monte Carlo in the Late Model at Shadybowl
Speedway. She competes against her own
dad!
Bio Lynn's a
true-blue car chick who grew up watching her dad
race on Ohio circle tracks and attending car shows,
& loving hot rods & rat rods. To make a
living, she runs a graphics design business,
www.whitelinedesign.com. Beginning in the summer of
2006, Lynn will be attending college, majoring in
E-Marketing, with a minor in Marketing Design. Her
son Andy is 12 and plays guitar in a band. Holly,
Lynn’s 10 year old daughter, wants to follow
in mom’s footsteps and become a racer! Besides
her human kids, Lynn has a fuzzy mini schnauzer
puppy who she refers to as her “four-legged
son”.
Results
In the 2003 and 2004
racing season, Lynn raced a Dodge Daytona in the
compact division at Shadybowl speedway. Her average
finish was 6th. In the 2005 racing season Lynn
stayed in the compact division but with a new car
built by Mitch’s all-nite Race Shop. In this
car, Lynn became the first female to ever win a
feature race at Shadybowl Speedway, and out of 9
races in it, she finished 3rd six times, 1st once,
6th once, and had 3 dnf’s (from being wrecked
by jealous male competitors!) The 2006 season
looked to be promising since Lynn had a new Late
Model with a new motor, but a weakness in the valve
train caused the motor to blow on her eighth lap
around the track. This kept Lynn out of the car for
all but two races in 2006, but she was happy that
she wasn't in last place in the points. Now that
her motor has been rebuilt and the car is in one
piece, she looks forward to great things for the
2007 season.
Schedule
The 2007 season schedule
includes weekly races competing in the late model
division at Shadybowl Speedway in DeGraff, Ohio,
along with occassional races at Kil-Kare Speedway
in Xenia, Ohio, and Winchester Speedway in
Winchester, Indiana. My goal is to be in the top
ten in points at Shadybowl at the end of the 2007
season.
