Controversial racing driver Renee Gracie has given a brutal verdict on her former career in Supercars, announcing that she has no plans to return to the team she once expressed.
“Supercars is over, it’s dead to me,” Gracie told News Corp.
The 30-year-old, who made history by becoming one of the first women to compete in the Supercars Championship and run in the Bathurst 1000, has drawn a clear line under this chapter of her life and is not looking back.
Once recognized as Australia’s top female motorcyclist, Gracie’s career came to a halt after she was unable to make the money necessary to remain competitive.
He retired from the sport in 2017, admitting he had been left “in a dark place” after giving everything he had to racing.
“I walked away from motorsport very defeated in a dark place, I had nothing, I lost everything that was devoting my life to motorsport and it didn’t work,” he said.
The former Supercars trailblazer rebuilt his life with OnlyFans, earning a fortune after leaving motorsport in the dark.

Only the success of the fans gave him the money to return to the race, which allowed Gracie to return to his path without relying on sponsors.
The change sparked an unexpected comeback in Australian sports.
Gracie turned to OnlyFans, a move that would change her life completely.
What started as a hobby quickly turned into a multi-million dollar business, with the first driver claiming to earn a five-figure, sometimes six-figure monthly salary.
‘I was broke and things went well, I was very lucky,’ he said.
‘I was very blessed and had a lot of financial success on stage and it changed my life and I was able to live again.’
Financial freedom allowed Gracie to build not only her life, but also her racing aspirations, this time on her own terms.
Now competing in GT World Challenge Australia, Gracie has found a new home in the sport, racing under his OnlyFans sponsored program.
He says the difference in the way he is treated compared to his Supercars days is clear.
He teamed up with Bathurst winner Will Davison, forming a strong Pro-Am goal despite early season struggles.
‘They don’t want me, that’s all right,’ he said.
Gracie admitted that sponsorship concerns have made it difficult to find teammates for his OnlyFans motorsport organization.

‘We are separated in ways, they don’t want anything to do with me honestly, I know where I am welcome and I know what works.’
That sense of belonging was a key factor in his decision to completely close the door on the return of Supercars, although he had previously tried to return in 2021.
‘I feel like being accepted and being in the team I’m in now in the SRO series is a blessing and I have no desire to be anywhere else in the world,’ he said.
I’ll be here until the day I die if they let me.’
Gracie’s return to racing has been rocky. His 2026 season opener at Phillip Island was marred by early incidents in both races, leaving him and co-driver Will Davison battling at the back of the field.
Despite the setbacks, the pair showed strong pace, returning to seventh place in Race 1 before being forced to retire in Race 2 after a collision caused damage to the driver.
The partnership itself is a statement of purpose. Davison, a two-time Bathurst 1000 winner, joined Gracie’s program after facing fan trouble with his OnlyFans organization, which he believes has made it difficult to find a teammate.
He said: ‘It has been difficult to get permission from other teams and other sponsors that the drivers will be with me.
But with Davison on board, Gracie believes he now has the tools to challenge for a title in the Pro-Am division.
He said: ‘I want to show people that I am here to take this matter seriously.’
‘I want to try to win all three. That’s my goal.’
Away from the track, Gracie’s success has turned into a luxury lifestyle.
He’s invested heavily in property, buying a $1.33million Gold Coast home complete with a large workshop dedicated to his love of cars, a sign of how far he’s come from his humble beginnings.
However, he remains one of the most prominent figures in Australian motorsport, a fact he openly admits.
‘I’m not ashamed but not because of anything other than, why does it matter?’ he said.
‘I think the crux of the matter is clearly the sexuality on stage and the content given, but that’s life, isn’t it?’
