Live Chat - Betty Klimenko

At last week’s Clipsal 500 inAdelaide Betty Klimenko quickly became the people’s choice. The sociable,genial and convivial Klimenko was in her element amongst the fans in Adelaide;and as happy as a pig in mud. As the first female team owner in V8 Supercars,Klimenko is a fiercely proud team woman and very recently converted motorsporttragic. She didn’t know about motorsport, or tattoos for that matter, until herlate 40s, but is now carving her way into one of the world’s greatestcategories.

She is a prolific ‘facebooker’,philanthropist who genuinely cares about her flock. So much so she will join V8Supercar fans tonight in an open online forum. Betty promises she will try toanswer you all; and is she doesn’t she will over time.

Below is a transcript from the live chat.
