I'm a fan of Leah Pritchett, but I just learned more about her from this interview than I ever knew.
Great story!

She is from my home town, Redlands CA. We have known her parents and her since she was born. we would go watch her race her JR Dragster.
Very down to earth, and as stated (very attractive).

Keep up the good work Leah.

Sounds like she must have had some kind of falling out with her dad. She really struggled with her emotions to talk about him. I hope that gets worked out.

Racing is hard on every one in the family, a lot of competitive people are hard on themselves as well as every one around them shruggy
I do know several NHRA division seven Stock and SS racers that went to the races to have fun at the races, they weren't there to only win the race confused shruggy
Not me whistling realcrazy

Good stuff. I missed out riding with her at Carlisle in '14. She was driving the Challenger up and down the fairgrounds pre-Drag and Drift.
