Podcast: IMSA's Jackie Heinricher - My racing life and career

New IMSA driver/entrant Jackie Heinricher (pictured, center) visits the Marshall Pruett Podcast for an episode of My Racing Life and Career to share stories of her upbringing, military service, love for science and the founding of a biotech firm.

Heinricher also details how a late introduction to motor racing has led to partnering with Meyer Shank Racing and Acura for a WeatherTech SportsCar Championship program in 2019 where Katherine Legge will co-drive and a new sponsor will underwrite the effort.
