Video: Watch a 60-Year-Old Woman Drag Racing her 475hp Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

For the most part, drag racing is a sport for young men. Sure, some of the world’s fastest drag racers are women, but it’s certainly a sport dominated by the male sex.

However, the following drag racing enthusiast goes firmly against those generalisations with the “60-some-odd years old” woman being a keen drag racing enthusiast with a modified, 475hp Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG in her stable.

Wearing a license plate of “BADBENZ”, the woman’s murdered-out Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG can deliver the impressive 475hp thanks to its having a chipped ECU and cold-air induction. As a result of this, the driver can launch the impressive German muscle car down the quarter mile in just over 11 seconds!
