Most famous figure on the drag strip
In no time, she transformed from an unknown into the most famous female figure on the drag strip. Her remarkable rise even led her to grace the cover of Hot Rod Magazine, a feat no woman had achieved before. The cheers that erupted when Pam stepped onto the track often surpassed the roars of applause for the most celebrated drivers.
“I’m kind of amazed by all the notoriety,” she remarked in 1974.
But Pam was more than just a pretty face, as some would have you believe. She staged the car, inspected it for fluid leaks before each run, filled the block with water and eight quarts of 70W oil, packed parachutes after every race, and assisted Jim in repositioning his car after his burnouts.
’”We put on a good show,” Pam said. ”And that’s what it was all about. It was not about me. When you were out there doing what we were doing, it wasn’t about me. It was about us.”
Pam was described as ”a stroke of genius,” and many were impressed that Jim had transformed her into a true racing enthusiast. This helped the sport’s profile overall, particularly enhancing the reputation of Jim Liberman’s team.
