Synopsis

At nineteen years old, Renee Gracie became Australia’s first female V8-Star and the first woman to race at the Bathurst 1000 in seventeen years. Despite breaking records, blatant sexism pushed her out of motorsport entirely. Capitalising on the sexualisation she faced, Renee became Australia’s biggest earner on OnlyFans. Now, she’s ready to re-enter the sport she loves – but – V8’s don’t want her back, believing her return is a ruse to promote her OnlyFans. This feature length documentary examines the greater injustices faced by women in motorsport, exposing what it takes to succeed, thrive and survive in a man’s world.
