Surrounded by her family in the comfort of her own home, “Lizzy” Elizabeth Patricia Musi, 33, lost her battle with breast cancer on Friday, June 28.
Lizzy, who resided in Statesville, NC, grew up in Carteret, NJ and graduated from Carteret High School. From a very early age, Lizzy was introduced to the world of drag racing, being the daughter of legendary engine builder and professional race car driver, Pat Musi. Attending all the races of her father’s career, Lizzy grew a passion for the sport and by 8 years old was driving her own junior dragster.
As the years went on, she began racing PDRA Top Sportsman. She then moved onto PDRA Pro Nitrous, stepping into Frank Brandao’s National Event Winning Dodge Dart, previously driven by her father and becoming the first woman to win a Pro Nitrous race. Afterwards, Lizzy became an international star, racing on the Street Outlaws No Prep Kings TV series, where she was the first woman to win an NPK race and first person to win three NPK events in a row.
Services will be held at 12:00 pm ET on Wednesday, July 3, 2024, at St. Therese Catholic Church, Mooresville, NC.
The family will receive friends on Tuesday, July 2, 2024, from 2:00 pm – 8:00 pm at the Heritage House of Cavin-Cook Funeral Home, Mooresville, NC.
