History[]
Operation Overdrive[]
Becoming a Ranger[]
Ronny as the Yellow Overdrive Ranger
Ronny was a top race car driver of worldwide fame, and had just won a championship in Italy when Andrew Hartford contacted her. Meeting with Will Aston, Dax Lo, Rose Ortiz and Mack Hartford, Ronny was informed that she was one of those chosen to become Power Rangers and find the five jewels of the Corona Aurora. Ronny and the others were skeptical about the idea of being superheroes but the Sentinel Knight convinced them that they were the only hope of the world. She soon went through a DNA re-sequenced that gave her super speed. The team was attacked on the Hartford Mansion by Lava Lizards and were later stopped by Chillers on their first mission, leading them to morph for the first time. Becoming the Yellow Ranger, Ronny used her Drive Claws to stop the Chillers. When the Rangers faced Moltor for the first time, the villain stole the Corona Aurora and blasted a nearby volcano to distract the team before leaving.
Ronny, Rose and Dax were sent to stop the volcano while the rest of the team protected the town from the lava flowing. Ronny used her Drive Claws to reach the main source of the lava, allowing Rose to stop the volcano. Mr. Hartford was soon kidnapped by Moltor, with the Rangers traveling to Rotuma Island in order to rescue him. Ronny then gained access to the Dozer Driver, which she used to merge with the Zords of her fellow Rangers and create the DriveMax Megazord to defeat one of Moltor's monsters. 
TV STORY-Kick into Overdrive
Ronny was a good friend with other Power Rangers and they came through numerous fantastic adventures. Although she is a capable Ranger, she has served the damsel in distress 3 times in the series. She was first captured by Mig and Cheetar, who stole her Overdrive Tracker to free their brothers from the Prison Mirror but managed to free herself when Tyzonn got her Tracker back to her.

Personality[]
Ronny was an enthusiastic and bold person. She showed a tendency of never giving up, even when everything looked bad. She was also highly competitive; she annoyed the other Rangers by repeatedly showing off when beating them at games, and had to be taught that winning isn't everything. However, she also understood that when it came to fighting evil, failure was not an option.
She shows extreme joy when faced with the vehicles the Overdrive team will use and attempts to act as driver as much as possible; when exploring areas once morphed, she can be extremely excitable.
Ronny was also a loyal friend. It was her who convinced Tyzonn that he should join the team, explaining to him that the deaths of his previous team were not his fault.
She used to have a pair of lucky socks that she'd worn for every race and that had never been cleaned ever; the smell was strong enough to stagger Blothgaar. She lent the socks to Mack to counteract his bad luck, but after he stopped using them, Spencer cleaned them, much to Ronny's dismay.
