Oh, and the front office at Mooresville-based Paretta Autosport is populated exclusively by women, with team owner Beth Paretta running the show. Amanda Frayer had no motorsports background before trying out to be a member of the pit crew for Paretta Autosport. Beth (Paretta) really relied on Penske (employees) to just ask around and ... my good friend’s father works for Penske. (The three other women on the pit crew for Paretta on Sunday in Indianapolis were Madison Conrad, Caitlyn Brown and Mallorie Muller.) And three of (the six women Frayer had been training with spent those two weeks) working on the actual IndyCar, ’cause they have like mechanical backgrounds.
