VICE’s Chasing Speed shifts the spotlight in Episode Three, diving headfirst into the high-risk, high-pressure world of the NHRA nitro classes through the eyes of the women rewriting the script. From rookie nerves to hard-earned confidence, the episode follows drivers like Julie Nataas, Ida Zetterström, Alexis DeJoria, and Jasmine Salinas as they navigate Top Fuel and Funny Car — and challenge long-held expectations along the way. Six-time NHRA Pro Stock world champion Erica Enders also makes an appearance. Episode 103 is now streaming on VICE’s YouTube channel, with the full video embedded below.
