Daytona Beach, FL -- Elaine Larsen looks every bit like a soccer mom, which she is. A statuesque blonde, she also looks like a model, which she could be. What she doesn't look like is a speed junkie whose weekend ride is a high tech "sled" propelled down a drag strip at speeds reaching 300 miles per hour by a 5,000 horsepower jet aircraft engine. But she is that, too. In vehicles designed, built and maintained by her company, Larsen Motorsports, Elaine has embarked this year on a tour designed to introduce fans to a new generation of jet-powered race cars. A founding member of the National Jet Racing Association (NJRA), she is the new voice for the breed. In addition to her duties as mother to 14-year-old son Andrew, wife to childhood sweetheart Chris, manager of a thriving two-car race team and driver of one of the most powerful vehicles on the planet, Elaine also is a motivational speaker who has addressed trade shows, women in business organizations and school assemblies. Mainly, though, she is a dynamic ambassador for jet-powered race cars. A class that has been unfairly ignored as professional racers. To change that image, the Larsen's founded the Larsen Motorsports High Performance Vehicles Research & Development Center now housed in the new Research and Technology Park of Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, FL Furthermore, the Larsen's helped found the NJRA and are now working on a reality TV series based on Elaine's not-so-typical lifestyle. Their message will get an expanded audience this fall when Elaine makes a series of exhibition appearances at traditional NHRA Full Throttle Series drag racing events in Indianapolis, Indiana, September 2-5; Reading, Pennsylvania, September 29-October 2; and Phoenix, Arizona, October 14-16. The Indianapolis appearance will be in conjunction with the 60th annual MAC Tools U.S. Nationals, the world's, largest, richest and most prestigious single drag race. The U.S. Auto Plus Nationals at Reading will impact a Philadelphia metro area that encompasses more than 6.1 million people. The Arizona Nationals will be contested near the western residential campus of Embry Riddle's Aeronautic University, located in Prescott Arizona. Jet cars like the two driven by Elaine - one sponsored by Miller Welding Co.; the other by Embry Riddle, are among the most exotic of all racing vehicles. The same engines that once powered American fighter jets and commercial aircraft have been significantly modified by Chris Larsen and his crew to provide the propulsion for hybrid race cars that never leave the ground. A specially-designed chassis accommodates the jet engine that, upon acceleration, subjects Elaine to G-forces unlike any in real life - almost five Gs on acceleration and a negative seven upon deployment of the massive braking parachutes at the end of a quarter mile run completed in five seconds. "With the television coverage, the large crowds and the new exposure for my sponsors, I can't wait to get our story in front of these potential new fans," Elaine said.
