Yes, we've got another double team situation going on here.
Courtney and Erica Enders, whose childhood dream was to race in the NHRA Junior Dragster Nationals and break the glass ceiling in the boys dominated sport.
Erica did end up turning pro in 2005 by participating in NHRA's Powerade series.
Then in 2012, she became the first woman to win it all when she defeated Greg Anderson on live TV, and she'd go on to become one of the sport's premier names, now a six-time Eliminator national champ.
Her sister Courtney no longer races, but has a career in the sport.
She is Erica's brand manager and works for Elliott Motorsports and Flow Racing, which is a media company focused on, well, very fast cars.
Now, let's not get this movie confused with one of our favorites, if not our favorite, which is Miracle in Lane 2.
That is Soapbox Racing, and that's the DCOM starring Frankie Munez.
Though the sports are similar, drag racing is the one that will get you killed and many, many, many fatal accidents.
The worst thing that really can happen in Soapbox Racing is you find out, well, you're allergic to the soap.
You'll probably just get bruised if you crash, which is which we saw, which we saw Frankie Muniz do.
The Ender sisters first caught national attention as kids when People magazine wrote a feature about them.
Then the movie was made with the teenagers.
And yes, they did all the stunt driving you see in the film, which is pretty awesome.
I figured as much, but that's pretty cool.
