A new book from an alumni of the first Little 500 women's race

“Willkie Sprint” chronicles that historic school year, as Hellmuth joins the team of the same name (an homage to their dorm, Willkie Residence Hall) trains with and befriends her teammates, and participates in 100 grueling laps on race day to become the first-ever Little 500 women’s champions in 1988."

I lived in Willkie that year. No memory of the race at all though.
