“ 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 .”

still clinging to this first love .
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
