At only the age of 14, Marcia began her racing career racing a bandolero racecar at Senoia Speedway in Senoia Georgia. In only her first year of racing in 2001, she was able to finish and clench  a 4th place finish in the points championship at Senoia Speedway. Marcia gives the credit of her racing career to her father. At the ages of 11-14 she spent a lot of her time helping her father and brother in there racing careers. When I was watching my dad and brother race, I got hooked. All I wanted to do was race a car of my own. I was one of the lucky ones to have this opportunity. As one of the few female drivers who competes against mostly all male competitors, I want other women and girls to know that it is possible and that dreams can come true. Marcia will race bandoleros again in 2002, and in 2003 at age 16 will hopefully move up to the Pro Late-Model division. A couple years of seat time in Pro Late-Model will hopefully give me enough of experience to move up to the Southern-All Stars Asphalt Super Late-Model Division. From there, who knows? Maybe ASA, Nascar trucks, Bush, and even Winston Cup. For more information please visit my website at http://www.marciabristol.com
