"Unstoppable." 

Inspired by Betty Skelton: Buckle Up, Y’all. Betty Was Born to Break Barriers (and Speed Limits). 🏁🔥✈️

On 06.28.1926, the world got a whole lot faster when Betty Skelton—aka The First Lady of Firsts—was born. This trailblazer didn’t just dip her toes into male-dominated industries... she kicked down the doors in a fireproof suit and aviators.

Let’s try to keep up:
At age TWELVE, Betty made her first solo flightillegally, because rules? She didn’t care.
She became the first Woman to pull off an “inverted ribbon cut”, flying upside down, 10 feet off the ground, and slicing a ribbon midair with her plane’s propeller. Who does that?! Oh right—Betty. 💅✈️

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. 🏎️💨

And that’s just the tip of the checkered flag.
Aviation. Auto Racing. Astronautics. Betty didn’t just enter the race—she left the boys choking on her dust.

Drive on, fly high, and slay forever, Betty. HERstory sees you. 💋👩✈️🚀
