This week on Late to Grid, Bill sits down with Nisa Borghi to talk about her path into motorsports—from giving her VW GTI a personality on Instagram, to celebrating 100K miles at her first autocross, to taking on the challenge of a rear-wheel-drive Miata.
Nisa shares what it was like stepping into the SCCA community, co-driving with her husband, flagging at Nelson Ledges, and learning the ropes as a woman in motorsports. From trackside lessons to social media connections, her story shows how passion, persistence, and community fuel the journey.
Whether you’re curious about autocross, looking for your motorsports tribe, or just love a good “late to grid” story—you’ll find plenty of inspiration in this episode.
