Kelly Sutton

http://www.sportsline.com/columns/story/10212155

I'm not a fan of any kind of race car driving - my interest piques only when there's women involved and then only because I hope they do well - I still won't watch the races.

Which isn't to say that I don't know some women who aren't big fans of the.... well, I guess you have to call it a sport...

Anyway, Mike Freeman's column today was about Kelly Sutton, a woman driver on the "gritty, tough-guy NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series."

A woman with multiple sclerosis who spent a year in a wheel chair, but now thanks to the drup Copaxone is back to racing again.

Very inspiring story - and very interesting - as apparently she can't get any "big-time" sponsors....
