Fourteen championships. Ninety-five wins. Nearly forty years on the racetrack - and still winning. Cindi Lux has spent a career proving that speed, grit and heart can outrun any obstacle, and she brings that same drive to the stage.
From the Parts Room to the Podium
Cindi's story starts in her family's Chrysler dealership, sweeping the parts room as a kid, surrounded by boxes of Mopar parts. Racing was in her blood - her grandfather competed in the 1953 Pan-American Road Race, and her brother set 24 NHRA national records. But it was Cindi who turned that inheritance into one of the most decorated career in American road racing: 14 career championships since 1988, more than 95 victories, 176 podium finishes, and over 59 pole positions.
Breaking Barriers, Setting Records
In a sport still dominated by men, Cindi didn't just compete - she redefined what was possible. She won the inaugural American Le Mans Series Women's Global GT Series Championship in 1999, beating out more than 150 women who tried out for the series. She holds the record for the highest finishing and highest starting female driver in SCCA World Challege GT history. In 2011, she became the first woman to podium in the Rose Cup Races Main event - and did it again several times since. Along the way, she's been a Mopar factory driver, a Dodge Motorsports team driver, and Director of the Ford Racing School. Today she's still winning championships, and is an Executive Board Member of Women in Motorsports North America (WIMNA), helping open doors for the next generation.
A Story of Resilience, Not Just Results
Behind the trophies is a career built on outlasting doubt, setbacks and a fieldthat wasn't built for her. Cindi has raced through changing teams, changing eras of the sport, and a global pause in 2020, and still winning races and setting track records nearly four decades after her first race. That kind of longevity isn't luck. It's the same mindset she now shares with audiences: how to compete when the odds are against you, how to build, motivate and lead a team under pressure,and how to keep pushing long after most people would have pulled into the pits for good.
