About Joan Newton Cuneo
Joan Newton Cuneo was an American racing driver. Between 1905 and 1912, she was successful in races against both male and female racers until the racing associations restricted races to men only. After women were banned from organized racing, she concentrated on setting women's speed records. Cuneo was a strong advocate for women drivers and an advocate for the Good Roads Movement in the United States. Until recently, she had received only a brief mention in automotive history "as the woman who got women banned from racing."
