Nati Torra - International Women of RC |
Today we're in Spain with off road racer Nati Torra and some memories of RC from the 1990's |
Hi Nati, how did you get started in RC?
Thanks to my dad and my brother I started in RC, with my dad as mechanic and my brother as pilot. One day I tried my brother's car and the next day my dad prepared one for me! Racing cars is traditionally a male dominated activity - did you find RC a welcoming environment to join? Yes, it is a Man's world, even more so when I started in the 90s, imagine... we had cameras with film and there were no mobile phones! Times change and I definitely encourage all women to try it out. guaranteed pure adrenaline! |
Would you like to see more women in the sport? Women fight to make our way into all sports and sometimes must make a bigger effort just for being women. Finally, as it's International Women's Day. Tell us a woman you look up to... I admire all women that fight everyday for equality, one beside to the other, no more and no less. |
