Anitka Rolczewski, aka Nika, made history in 2003 as the first Canadian journalist to test drive the million dollar Ferrari Enzo. A true motorsports and automotive enthusiast she currently has her own performance car column in the Toronto Star newspaper - the best read automotive supplement in North America. In her spare time she runs a website dedicated to promoting women in racing which on its own averages 1 million hits per month and 1000 unique visitors a day.

She has strapped herself in an alcohol burning funny car, a Formula 2000 race car, James Bond’s Aston Martin Vanquish and even God’s car the Saleen S7 from the movie Bruce Almighty; making her one of the most adventurous automotive writers in the country.

Her website, Racerchicks.com began as a hobby in 2000 and became an informative and entertaining venue for women and their passion for cars. Racerchicks.com quickly gained the status as the premier website featuring women racers - a wonderful and supportive web community now exists thanks to her generosity and hard work. Nika was honored with the Automotive Hall of Fame, Women’s Automotive Association, International Women in Racing 2001 Award for achievement and support of women in racing. She participates regularly in charity events and speaks frequently in front of women’s groups and local car clubs. In her spare time she enjoys her very own toy - her 1985 Ferrari 308GTS.
