Doreen Seidel Becomes 1st Female to Win in the EXR Series at Exotics Racing Las Vegas
Professional Racecar Driver and Former 2008 Playboy Playmate Doreen Seidel is the first female to win a race in the EXR Series. The sprint race series takes place on the 1.5-mile Exotics Racing racetrack located at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Founded in 2016, the annual EXR Series is a collection of endurance and sprint races which take place across the West Coast where drivers, with varying levels of skills and experience, compete to win a test day in a GT4 race car. Past participating celebrity drivers include Mario Andretti and his grandson, Marco; Arie Luyendyk Jr. from “The Bachelor” and Caitlyn Jenner.
During the most recent race in April, Seidel’s time of 1:04.9 bested 10 other skilled participating drivers.
“Becoming the first woman to win an EXR Series race makes me so proud because you have to really fight hard as a driver during competition races. In this race, I lost position, I fell back in the pack, but I fought hard to take back the lead and won. That was one of the most intense races I ever had,” says Seidel.
Seidel has more than 10 years of experience. Career highlights include racing in the GT4 European Series and the Audi TT Cup with several podiums.
The next EXR race is scheduled for June 1. Click here for more information.
