Join us on a high-octane episode of Owner's Pride Podcast as we dive into the life of Cheryl Hyland, affectionately known as "The Queen of Destruction." Born and raised in the heart of Southern California's racing scene, Cheryl's passion for the track ignited at the tender age of 15, a flame that has only grown brighter with time. From the dusty circles of OSS to the electrifying nights at Irwindale Speedway, she's dominated the track in every event imaginable - figure 8s, demolition derbies, trailer races, and even the uniquely thrilling auto soccer.
But Cheryl's story isn't just about the thrill of the race. It's a tale of resilience, community, and giving back. A survivor of the Las Vegas Route 91 shooting, Cheryl shares her journey of overcoming trauma and finding solace in the speedway's embrace. Alongside her boyfriend, the "Master of Mayhem," Cheryl has built a life that intertwines love, competition, and charity, raising funds for causes close to her heart, from cancer research to supporting fellow survivors.
Discover how this champion racer and survivor uses her platform to inspire and uplift, making every lap count not just for victory, but for a cause. With every crash and cheer, Cheryl Hyland isn't just racing; she's rewriting the narrative of strength, community, and the indomitable spirit of women in motorsports (Gorgeous Irwindale Racing Ladies) (KPBS) (The Face).
