A story of failures and victories, of sacrifices, frustrations, exciting moments, hard work\u2026 of throwing cookies at him even when it seemed easier to give up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never imagined having a Barbie inspired by me, let alone imagine that seeing it, a girl can feel that there is also space for her on the runways, that she can also try, that she can belong. And if this story manages to make even a girl take that first step, then the whole road will have been worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sirvent has also run in the NASCAR Mexico Series.<\/p>\n<p>Regina Sirvent Barbie Photo<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"960\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"Regina Sirvent Barbie Doll\" class=\"wp-image-138592\" data-lazy- data-lazy- data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Regina-Sirvent-Barbie-Doll-768x960.jpeg\"\/>Regina Sirvent Barbie Doll<\/p>\n<p>Links<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reginasirvent.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Regina Sirvent<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arcaracing.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ARCA Racing Series<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nascar.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NASCAR<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Regina Sirvent is now an official Barbie Role Model Regina Sirvent completed part-time in the ARCA Menards Series&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":501969,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[446],"tags":[924,7058,7059,7060,4527,49,48,1072,634,200533,200534,82],"class_list":["post-501968","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nascar","tag-arca","tag-arca-menards","tag-arca-menards-series","tag-arca-racing","tag-barbie","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-mexico","tag-nascar","tag-nascar-mexico-series","tag-regina-sirvent","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/501968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=501968"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/501968\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/501969"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=501968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=501968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=501968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
