Lyn St. James – She Did It For The Right Reasons

Some in professional racing circles will quietly tell you Lyn St. James had a career that cannot be replicated today.

We were fortunate to talk with Lyn recently and deeply dive into her inspiring Hall of Fame career that includes the Sports Car Club of America Hall of Fame in 2017, the Sebring Hall of Fame in 2020, and the Automotive Hall of Fame in July of 2022.

One clear, consistent theme emerged after our time with Lyn. Throughout her journey, she did it for the right reasons.

We were honored to have Lyn St. James share her journey on our platform. Her energy, focus, and drive were evident from the first moment. Lyn's story, in many ways, transcends motorsports. It serves as an inspirational ray of hope for all those who dare to step forward and follow their dreams.

Lyn is quite amazing in every aspect - and beyond the well-deserved motorsport accolades she continues to receive, she's been a wonderful mentor to women in every aspect of the automotive world -- most recently with the start of the 'Women in Motorsport' community which she and Beth Paretta have spearheaded https://womeninmotorsportsna.com/ there is an opportunity for women of all ages and automotive interest to become involved -- and succeed!  thanks for sharing this story and hope many will continue to keep their eyes on Lyn and all she does -- she's nothing short of inspiring!
