I admire your passion. You should put all your faith and will into something more positive though...like ending world hunger. I have a feeling that will happen before Danica wins a race.

Very few drivers come from the back at The Glen.
Danica Patrick is NOT going to be an exception.

The "good old days" ??
It's more likely an Elephant pops out of the next egg than Danica driving to the front and winning.

Danica wins if:
1. There's an early caution after the first pit stop and she's the only one to pit.
2. When everyone else pits, she stays out for a while and inherits the lead.
3. It rains.

Hey, Kyle Petty won at the Glen back in 92 due to rain so why not Danica. I mean 2 years ago whenever that was, wasn't she leading that road race when someone threw their shoe onto the track?

I need to think of something new for here
But there is no rain forecasted on Sunday, so.........................

Please don't compare Danica to Kyle. Even Kyle had more talent.
Danica's first 67 races - 3 Top 10's
Kyle's first 67 races - 19 Top 10's, 2 Top 5's.

It was just a random statement geez, you didn't have to break out the stat book. Trust me I know very well Kyle's career was much better than Danica's. As a matter of fact, the 92 season happened to be his best season of his career...

Also, the sneaker thing totally didn't mess up Danica. The car broke.

You can see the rear axle sliding around in this video, especially in the hard braking zones. It was doing that before she ever hit the shoe. I was texting a buddy at the time asking how we could see it but her crew and the TV people could not. All Marty Reid and Ricky Craven could chalk it up to was her inexperience and nerves. If the shoe never lands on the track, they'd probably still be trying to blame her for "imagining" things when the rear end was sliding around.
It's not nearly as fun to say Danica lost Montreal because of a mechanical failure, though.

With respect to the tragic occurrence at Canandaigua Motorsports Park last evening, a pre-race Patrick report will not be posted.
My prayers and thoughts are with the family and friends of Kevin Ward, Jr., as well as those associated with Tony Stewart and Stewart-Haas Racing. May God grant comfort and strength to those struggling with a new reality in their lives.

Sorry, but no it's not (at least not in the racing world).
Danica is awesome on road courses....

To be fair, I don't think anyone denies that Danica is a beautiful woman.
A racer though? That's a different discussion.

Same as saying you really didn't lose, just that you just didn't win.

Just saying giving the emotional rollercoaster she did well. Hell, I;d wager without getting caught up in the newman mess she would be top 10.

She wasn't on anymore of an emotional rollercoaster than the other 42 cars on the track.

that's a new one, emotional roller coaster? I knew one or two that when it was their time of the month I wouldn't call it that.
Far as I am concerned, she was damn lucky she got thru there as well as she did.
