Jun 24, 2026 · 51 min

Katherine Legge is joined by Gail Truess, a championship-winning rally driver who became the first woman to win a national SCCA Pro Rally Championship and later transitioned into pace car, ride, and safety roles around INDYCAR. She recalls discovering rallying in college through a Mazda tire test, learning largely by feel without rally schools or pace notes, and advancing quickly with a pro team and navigator. Also, she explains dispatch protocols, multi-car incident priorities, staying calm amid chaos, and safety evolution.
