You have glowing skin and gorgeous hair. Share with us your haircare and skincare routine.
Toni Breidinger:
Thank you! It’s so difficult to keep up with my hair and skin since I’m in a helmet all the time! For hair I use HairClub’s Maxxam shampoo conditioner, and volumizing spray. I have sensitive skin so I stick to the same simple products every day. I use a very gentle face wash and moisturizer tailored to sensitive skin. I’ll use serums as well depending on what my skin needs.
Namita Nayyar:
What traits do you think should be in a competitive successful female car racing driver?
Toni Breidinger:
Determination, initiative, a willingness to improve, and humility.
Namita Nayyar:
In 2020, you competed in Carolina Pro Late Model Series, for DLP Motorsports driving the 80 car. You were placed 4th in points. In the 8 races in the series you were placed 3 Top 5s, and 4 Top 10s. Tell us more about your racing experience in these races?
Toni Breidinger:
I absolutely loved racing in that series for DLP Motorsports. It was my first season in that series and with that team so I really didn’t know what to expect. I was showing up to new tracks all over North Carolina that I hadn’t been to before so it was a lot of pressure but my team really guided me and we were able to get some solid results that I was proud of.
Namita Nayyar:
You appeared on the famous The Ellen DeGeneres Show on February 25, 2021. You became the first NASCAR driver that was not from the NASCAR Cup Series to appear as a guest on the show. Elaborate on this experience of yours on being on the show?
Toni Breidinger:
Being on Ellen was a crazy experience. I couldn’t believe that I was asked to be a guest! Back when I was racing go-karts I never thought I would be on a show like this. I was able to talk about becoming the first Arab-American woman in a NASCAR national series and how I hope to be able to pave the way for others to follow. Ellen gave me the chance to talk about my passions and hopefully it will inspire another little girl to be a NASCAR driver when she grows up.
