Lisa was still in search of her niche. Lisa's love for speed and engines began early. When Lisa was first born her father named his race care "Lisa Ann" and took her to Raceway Park for many years. That introduction sparked a lifelong passion that would define much of her journey. From those early days at the track, for those who knew the Twilight Zone was her first up close look into top fuel racing. Lisa pursued her dreams with determination and heart-earning recognition as Miss Raceway Park and Miss English Leather. For being prematurely born, she certainly grew up to tall and grew up right!

Lisa's love for drag racing wasn't just a pastime-it became the backdrop to her life story. It was at the track that she met her beloved husband,Austin Coil. The crew found a purse, inside was her address book. She obviously was there at their pit and the crew decided to track Lisa down since her name and number was listed. From there Lisa and Austin started talking on the phone more and more and blossomed into romance and visits to Catalina Island. This led to Marriage on QE2 in Long Beach, California. Lisa and Austin have been married over 33 yrs. On their off time they were able to have fun riding their dirt bikes in the canyons behind their home. They loved to cook and BBQ and listen to good music. Lisa traveled alongside Austin in their bus with their cherished dogs by her side, finding peace exploring all over. Whenever Lisa came home to Croton her and Austin would always go visit the Croton Dam for hours watching is commanding power. Which they both loved to look at.. Beyond the racetrack, Lisa found joy in life's simple pleasures: she adored her dogs, had a deep appreciation for beautiful flowers, and never missed a chance to have a few of Austin BBQ food and to turn the music up. Her warmth and energy made her well-known wherever she went.

Their shared devotion to racing forged a deep bond in their marriage that carried them across the country together. Lisa in her bus following the demanding schedule of Austin's professional career.
