The first outings of 2018 showed early promise for Musi. She went to the finals of the U. S. Street Car Nationals. She ran a 3.68 in the semis to have the on-paper advantage over Jason Harris going into the finals but came home wiht a runner-up finish. Still, Musi’ s solid performance sets the tone for a successful year.
She’ s got nearly 50,000 followers on Instagram which is opening doors into new marketing and business opportunities for Musi.
“ My goal is to expand what I do,” explained Musi.

“ I want to open up to other companies outside the racing industry. Through my Instagram account, I’ ve been approached by several companies that want to do some promoting. I’ m trying to expand.
“ When I graduated from high school, I wanted to do fashion design. My my heart was also with racing. I was already working in the shop with my dad and I knew that was something I wanted to do so I stuck with racing. Over the years, I’ ve always had a love for fashion design and illustration. So my major goal is to collaborate with a company and come up with my own clothing line.”

With a promising start to the year and a host of opportunities ahead, 2018 could be a big year for the President of Musi Racing Engines. She’ s still looking for that first championship and it’ s certainly not out of the question for her in 2018. She’ s already inked a partnership with a clothing company and is working hard on further endeavors in both racing and fashion. She recognizes her strengths and does not take lightly the opportunities, knowledge, and support she’ s gotten from growing up with Pat Musi as her father and mentor. Building on that, she’ s continuing to pave her own way and make her own mark on the industry.- LISA COLLIER DI
