Meet the Croatian Supercar Blondie, Race Track Record Holder

May 9, 2023 - Nensi Perić Terčić from Opatija is a sports manager by profession, and she organizes track day events at the Grobnik race track near Rijeka. Meet the Croatian Supercar Blondie.

Her greatest love and passion, as 24Sata writes, are fast sports cars. She holds the female record at the Grobnik race track, and many compare her to the mega-popular "Supercar Blondie."

Her track day events welcome amateur drivers to Grobnik, who can come with their own or a rented car and enjoy a sporty drive. Nensi and her husband have four supercars that they rent out.

"The cars from our fleet include a Ferrari 488 GTB, a Porsche GT3 RS, a Porsche Carrera 4 GTS, and an Alfa Romeo 4C. For those who come to the track for the first time, we offer a beginner's track day, where we teach the drivers all the details to avoid any inconvenience with the first time out on the track", explains Nensi, who has loved cars since she was a little girl. Her father is a passionate fan of cars and auto racing, and he passed that love on to her.

"Passion for cars is encoded in my genes. I've loved watching car races and Formula 1 since I was little, and that love continued through high school when I followed everything but fashion and beauty magazines", reveals Nensi.

Race Track Record Holder

This "Lady in the car", as her Instagram handle states, currently holds the record for the fastest lap in the category of female drivers on Grobnik. Her record is 1.37 minutes, and she hopes to boast a new personal record of 1.34 minutes by the end of the year. The fastest car she ever drove was an Aston Martin GT4.

"I drove that car in Yas Marina in Abu Dhabi, and it will definitely remain in my memory forever because it was the first time I drove a racing car on a track where Formula 1 is normally driven", recalls Nensi.

"When I'm driving on the track and pass the finish line, the eyes from the stands turn towards my car, and I don't think anyone is aware that a woman is driving. When I return to the pit and take off my helmet, men often react with surprise. It's mostly positive reactions", says Nensi.

Driving Expensive Cars

The most expensive car she has ever driven is worth an incredible 5 million euros - a Pagani Huayra BC model.

"I often get the opportunity to drive expensive cars, which is an exceptional honor," she adds.

Nensi says she is flattered when people compare her to Australia's "Supercar Blondie," who has more than 30 million followers on her reviews of exotic cars.

"I hope that I will have the opportunity to drive the cars that she drove," she says.

Nensi plans to continue organizing events at the Grobnik race track and expand to other tracks in Europe. In addition, she is working on establishing a club of women who are fans of fast driving.

"I invite them to contact me so we can gather as many as possible," concludes the 30-year-old Croatian Supercar Blondie.
