What say you @FLRacingFan and @kkfan91
 
Also, I don't think I've seen her be this enthusiastic when she was driving stock cars it gives me hope that she will succeed

My gosh, what an uncritical article. It reads like she did everything but change her own tires while standing in burning oil.

Her practice fastest time was in the first session. She started one race 10th and finished 11th. She started the other in 10th and finished there. Top ten in a fifteen car field where few drivers advanced doesn't seem like that big a deal to me.

Good for her for showing some enthusiasm. I hope her future results will better justify it.

Nice to see you guys are becoming FR America fans now. Her team and the series are counting on it. Truck viewership increased 20% when she raced in it. Sponsors love that kind of thing.

Fan of all racing.

I wanted to know how many cars were in the field, so I looked it up. Now I know.

Let's refocus. She has zero experience in open wheel until recently. I think she's got talent, given her performance this soon on.

I'm hope she only gets better.
 
This is the first video of hers I have ever watched. Funny to see the big guy telling her how to drive but it looks like she's paying attention. Good for her. Open wheel cars might work out for her.

Agree. She's really in Learning mode. I wonder if she thought she "knew it all" in Xfinity and trucks.

I like to see how much fun she'd having.

My apologies for the delayed response.

My comment was critical of the article, not Deegan directly. It had more spin than a clothes drier. It described everything she did as if it was the best possible action.

The AI bot stayed within the parameters it was given.

Something about putting lipstick on a pig.

Speaking of spinning. When in training pay attention to what the driver coach was saying. He not only was pointing out the things she did well, but also what she could have done better. The bottom line, if you even watched the clip, was at the end of the piece she said she was faster than the previous practicing session. That is the goal of training and practice.
About the clip. As of today Deegan has over 52 thousand views of that clip 36 hundred likes and multiple pages of fan interaction comments along with an in the clip sponsor kicking in even more add revenue. So not only did she pay her house payment, she got to drive a race car which in turn means she made more money than any of the clown cars here and she got to drive a race car. You all go buy your Dale Jr. duck call and be happy.

I wasn't referring to her recent clip, I was reply to @DanicaFreak regarding the article posted last month.

Same thing applies about the look over here. This clip has 167 thousand views compared to 52 thousand views of the newer one, seventy four hundred likes and again many pages of positive fan interactions (that is why she has sponsors) along with a bonus in the clip(sponsor) ad. Did you know that some of the in the clips ad's pay up to $10,000 dollars, some even more? Once again, it shows the trainer/crew chief critiquing her driving and after an engine exploding and numerous rain delays Haley finished 10th in her first race in the car. I don't expect anything different, but people do see things with different eyes for sure.
