00:00Was it difficult to be a girl in this sport?
00:05Because I mean, maybe when you started, it's probably different from how it is now?
00:10Would you say that there are more female race car drivers now than when you first started?
00:15Yes.
00:16Definitely a different scenario from when I started.
00:20Nakakatawa.
00:21Nakakatawa ngayon na ang daming babae and it is like out in the open or more ingrained
00:28into society na may mga female racers.
00:32I remember when I started, it wasn't just even that eh kasi medyo sikat ang street
00:38racing noong time na nagsimula ko.
00:42So calling yourself a racer didn't exactly have a positive connotation to it.
00:48So one, I had to defend that na parang hindi, legal to, sa track namin ginagawa to.
00:54Then another side was telling them that you mean business.
00:59Because a lot of people didn't really, you know, consider the women who are racing taken
01:05seriously.
01:06Parang ah, yeah, baka girlfriend lang ng isang karirista or something like that.
01:11I've had a few interesting comments back in the day trying to race.
01:17But now, ano na, I think it's a lot more open.
01:21So you would say that when you started, you were really working against a stereotype?
01:25Oh yes, definitely.
01:27I remember there's one race and I've said, I have mentioned this to a few people na before
01:33na slalom, kakastart ko lang, I was having a bad day.
01:37And slalom kasi usually nasa may, ano yan eh, sa mall.
01:40So maraming tao talaga sa parking lot ng malls.
01:43So after my stint, I was going back to the paddock and I remember hearing these two random
01:50people outside.
01:51Kasi nga diba wala kang vintana.
01:52They were saying like, ay, pangit naman ang oras niya.
01:53Then the other guy goes, ay hindi pala, okay na yan kasi babae siya.
01:54Yan ang babae.
01:55I was like, ano?
01:56Aray!
01:57Take!
01:58Plus, siguro rin kasi no, that's why that comment came.
01:59Kasi nga they don't, wala namang distinction.
02:00I'm not saying it's justified.
02:01Pero wala kasi namang distinction.
02:02I'm not saying it's justified.
02:03Pero wala kasi namang distinction.
02:04I'm not saying it's justified.
02:05Pero wala kasi namang distinction.
02:06I'm not saying it's justified.
02:07I'm not saying it's justified.
02:08I'm not saying it's justified.
02:09No naman.
02:10But it's what fueled me.
02:11It fueled me to show people that I meant business.
