BECKY RAY

Becky is a Web Administrator and lives in Belleville Ontario. She has been racing for 15 years thanks to her dad! He was racing way before Becky was even born, and she grew up having fun with her entire family at the track. Further evidence that racing is a great family sport! According to Becky, her dad wanted to scare her away from the sport! He didn't want his daughter to like racing and steal his race car! Unfortunately for him, fellow Sister In Speed Ashley Kennedy's dad Doug took her on her first trip down the racetrack, and well let's just say, Becky WASN'T scared!
