The Fastest Woman on Earth - AND her Team

Having been a woman in a man's world a thousand years ago (aviation), I know that I couldn't have gone far without the men who surrounded me and taught me so very well, and kept my aircraft in tip top shape (I flew aerobatics).What Jessi Combs did was amazing - and so was the team that supported and respected and loved her. BTW - she earned all of it - and they knew it.This documentary was a tribute to people who are extraordinary and want to find a way to go faster (and higher) and help one another - at all costs. For Jessi, it was the cost of family. My flight instructor admonished me to "Stay with your own kind". He was right. I wish I could have told that to Jessi.The addition of Kitty O'Neil's achievements - and life - was a bonus and the fact that Jessi looked up to her was a lesson for all of us.The way this documentary was presented (inside the "car") was edgy - and let us hear and feel exactly what was happening - taking us to the edge. Taking us over the line to the record breaking speeds.Thank you, Jessi Combs AND Thank You to her wonderful Team. We lost you far too soon.

Inspiring and heartbreaking (and not just for racing fans)

This documentary following Jessi Combs was inspiring and heartbreaking. On her relentless journey to break the women's land speed record, Jessi connects with Kitty O'Neil, the woman that set the record 40 years earlier. The most compelling parts of the documentary were the comparison of Kitty's and Jessi's experiences as women excelling in a sport dominated by men, as well as Jessi's pursuit to be a leader and role model to women wanting to pursue trades where women are not often represented.The racing footage was impressive and includes runs from multiple years, and the introduction to the sport was enough to provide background to viewers unfamiliar with land speed racing.
