I've kept this video book-marked so I can always keep learning her perfect line. She makes it look easy.

I had heard that their was a Utube of her qualification lap, but I never had the chance to watch it.

Yes she made it look like she was out for a Sunday drive to Shermans. Then I watched it again and watched the G-meter in the lower left corner.

Oh My, she's repeatedly pegging the meter with no sound of tires squealing (at least with my bad hearing) !!!

Go Becky, Go.........

This was my favorite... riding shot-gun with her at NCM. She impressed the heck out of me on this run.

Love the conversation at the beginning too.

Sadly, I owed her a ride along in mine and was going to pay up last week.

I could defiantly hear the tires on that one.

I wonder in total, how many laps did she do at Gingerman's ??

Damn she can drive.

Did I have chance to meet you? I always like to put Camaro6 names with faces. This is what my “face” looked like most of the day.

She did burn through some tires too. Once she got the 6th Gen it was all over. She improved a lot and had a couple great coaches along the way too.

I heard a story where she was at some racetrack away from home, and by the time she was ready to drive home, the tires were down to the cords.

They pumped up the tires to 20psi OVER normal inflation and drove home riding on the center of the tires rather than the full tread surface.

Made it too.

I wonder why she never bought a ZL1 1LE ???

She wanted the Auto, same as I did. But I ended up wanting the suspension even more. Her next would have been a C8.

I'm guessing that even though the ZLE finally was available with an auto, she realized the C8 was a much better deal considering how much more performance it would have over even a ZLE.

I hear she had even picked out what she would choose for a license plate.

Did Becky ever live in Pasadena.?

We didn’t get a chance to meet, unfortunately. I was the guy in the red shirt and gray hat.

Oh wow I am really saddened about hearing this awful news. I haven't been on the site in over three weeks. What happened? Hopefully she was doing what she loved doing, tires screeching, doing some hot laps here and there.
Just like so many others on here, Becky helped me out, did all the muscle for me, to get my 2018 SS ordered, spec ed out just the way I wanted.
Her loss will have a big impact on many.
Prayers to the family and close ones to her.
Lee

Thanks to Sons of Speed and CGI for putting this together.

Great video hard to watch not getting emotional.

So very moving... not sure I can watch the entire thing right now.

I've also added this one to the OP.
