Racing official, Mauricia Grant, is filing a lawsuit against the NASCAR organization on grounds of both ****** and racial harassment. The young 32 year old African-American woman ...

Grant was forced to work outside more often than the white male officials because her supervisors believed she couldn’t sunburn because she was black.

When she ignored advances from co-workers, Grant was accused of being gay

When packing up a dark garage at Texas Motor Speedway an official told Grant: “Keep smiling and pop your eyes out ’cause we can’t see you.”

While riding in the backseat of her car pool at Talladega Superspeedway, co-workers told her to duck as they passed race fans. “I don’t want to start a riot when these fans see a black woman in my car,” she claims one official said.

I'm not supprised a black lady is saying she was treated unfairly. I highly doubt those things are in context.

So did she work for "Nascar" or a racing team?

Are you kidding, if those statements were made, a nascar setting would be my first guess as to where it happened :lol:

Sounds like a racing team.

If it was a racing team she can't sue NASCAR.

• She was asked by her supervisor “Does your workout include an urban obstacle course with a flat-screen TV on your back?”

Thats what I was thinking, sounds like money grubbin and goin after the biggest fish in the pond. If she was on a racing team, going after the team would be a bit more appropriate, even if it means less cash in a settlement.
