I recommend her book, "A Life at Full Throttle". It's about 90% race report. The rest is what she was up against as a woman breaking into the upper echelons of racing in the 1970s, and a little bit about her personal life. It's very well written, if she didn't have a ghost writer I'm very impressed.
