There’s a lot more to Netflix’s docuseries Fastest Car than meets the eye. Sure, it’s non-stop, adrenaline-pumping action that gearheads will devour, but underneath all the high-speed excitment lies a stealthy storytelling that makes you genuinely care about the contestants. The eight-episode reality competition show is an engaging mix of sports and story, and two of the most compelling cast members from Season 1 are racers Debbie Foreman and Lisa Clark.
Forget about checkered flags, sleeper cars, and quarter-mile times, we’re here to go zero to sixty with info regarding our two favorite combatants from this Netflix reality series. Want to know a little more about the two standouts from the cast of Netflix’s Fastest Car? Buckle up! Here’s everything you need to know about Debbie Foreman and Lisa Clark.
WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH DEBBIE FOREMAN’S 2016 LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR SV FROM EPISODE 7?
You remember Debbie’s 2016 Lambo, right? Sick paint, loud motor, and, oh yeah, she transformed it into a real-life Batmobile.
“I always loved Batman,” Foreman said during Episode 7 of the Netflix series. “Just what he represented. You don’t have to have superpowers to be a superhero. I just kinda related to that.”
It’s a message the Batman fan has taken to heart. Going by the name of Batventaor, Debbie uses her unique Lamborghini to help raise awareness for childhood cancer. Her vehicular acts of kindness began when she decided to visit a local children’s hospital in Austin, Texas. The Drive reports it was there that she brightened the day of a patient who previously refused to get out of bed or even talk to the staff.
“From then on, I knew this is what I’m supposed to do,” Foreman told The Drive. “People have no idea that something so small can impact someone’s life so big.”

WHAT ABOUT LISA CLARK AND HER SLICK 2016 FERRARI 488 GTB FROM EPISODE 5?
Racing is in the bones of 56-year-old Lisa Clark. During Episode 5 of Fastest Car, Clark shared how her love of racing developed from a childhood spent working on cars with her dad, who was a fan of desert motorsports. When she’s not cruising around listening to Bocelli, the accomplished racer is competing in… well, any event that has wheels, really.
Clark’s first car, according to a feature on the racer in Robb Report magazine, was a Jeep CJ-5 with an engine that didn’t run. Clark and her father, naturally, rebuilt the engine. From there, it was a green-light. You wouldn’t know it from her extensive racing resume, but the mother of two only recently started racing competitively. “My husband said, ‘The girls are getting old enough, why don’t you pursue it?’ So we bought a Ferrari California,” Clark told Robb Report.
She hired a racing coach and joined the EXR racing series and Ferrari Challenge, earning the North American “Ladies Cup” last year driving for Ferrari of Beverly Hills.
