Josie Rimmer is a Writer and the Women in Motorsport Coordinator at DirtFish Rally School. Dirtfish is the most prestigious rally school in North America. It’s a rally school where participants get to experience and learn car control in a variety of surfaces from entry level to professional race training. Josie grew up in a ‘rally family’ but headed in a different type of horsepower spending her youth riding horses. She competed in the Appaloosa Youth World Show and earned 13 World Championships. Today she competes in RallyCross events driving her 1986 Ford Merkur XR4Ti, leaving tracks in the mud and dirt that are quite different than horse hoofs!
