"Unstoppable."Â
Inspired by Betty Skelton: Buckle Up, Yâall. Betty Was Born to Break Barriers (and Speed Limits). đđ„âïž
On 06.28.1926, the world got a whole lot faster when Betty Skeltonâaka The First Lady of Firstsâwas born. This trailblazer didnât just dip her toes into male-dominated industries... she kicked down the doors in a fireproof suit and aviators.
Letâs try to keep up:
At age TWELVE, Betty made her first solo flightâillegally, because rules? She didnât care.
She became the first Woman to pull off an âinverted ribbon cutâ, flying upside down, 10 feet off the ground, and slicing a ribbon midair with her planeâs propeller. Who does that?! Oh rightâBetty. đ
âïž
Fast forward to 1954, she became the first Woman test driver for the auto industry.
Then the first Woman boat jumper in the U.S. (because why not add water stunts to the résumé?).
In 1956, she shattered a transcontinental speed record, and in 1957, she became the first Woman to drive the Pace Car at the legendary Daytona 500. đïžđš
And thatâs just the tip of the checkered flag.
Aviation. Auto Racing. Astronautics. Betty didnât just enter the raceâshe left the boys choking on her dust.
Drive on, fly high, and slay forever, Betty. HERstory sees you. đđ©âïžđ
