Danica to NASCAR?

Wrecked huh, the knuckle dragging Mike Wallace punted Shawnas car into the wall.

LOL I laugh every time I think about that. Mike did everything but come right out and tell everyone that he was going to run her into the wall. I'd say that well over 90% of those watching the race had their eyes on Mike instead of the pole sitter.

But here's a question for all to ponder. It took Shirley Muldowny some hard work to make her way into the top ranks of drag racing and once she did that, she worked until she won the title. Since that time, there have been a multitude of women in drag racing and successful as well. But NASCAR on the other had has had women come and go for many years with some of those women being top drivers in other series, yet they were never able to achieve the heights in NASCAR as they did in other series. And you look at the IRL where three women compete at almost all the tracks and though only one of them is anything like successful, the other two are not in any equipment that would get even the top drivers a good finish.

So, what is it about NASCAR that prevents women from making gains in the sport?
 
Interesting... because SPEED says every year that drivers have to have ARCA experience to run on the big tracks. Perhaps NASCAR doesn't enforce it as well, and Raymer slipped through the cracks?

SPEED will say anything in order to get people too watch their crappy attempt at covering a race. That is part of the script. If it where not for somebody tuning in too see the next hot prospect why would anybody be drawn to it?

They don't look like Danica and don't undress themselves on magazine covers to attract sponsorship? :idunno:

SPEED does suck. :rolleyes:

Maybe you should also follow the Andy Marquis doctrine and beg Ron Dragger to pull his head out of his ass and go spend that money to have the races air on Versus instead.

Answer to that question is simple Buck....talent, there is no woman out there right now that can drive at the Cup level.

Check back in 18 years and we'll see how Ella Sophia Gordon is doing. Assuming she follows Dad's career path, and not Mom's. ;)

Like I said... presently there is no woman with the talent required to compete at the Cup level, if there is or was it would of happened 10-15 years ago. Nothing against ladies here, but I just don't feel they have what it takes to race, be competitive on a consistent basis, and actually win at the highest tier of Nascar...just my opinion. I'm sure there are some ladies out there that feel differently, and more power to you if you prove me wrong.:D
 
Just heard on my local late news that word has it that Danica will run a limited number of Cup races next year in a Roush built car and a full truck schedule the following year. If this does come to fruition, we'll finally get to see what this girl can do.

It's not April 1st. :p
 
(S)he can be mediocre at indy car, so chances are (s)he will be plain crap in the cup.

The only thing (s)he has ever shown to do adequetely is yell at other drivers who are better than "her" and hide "her" male unit, although (s)he cant hide "her" other mannish features very well.

Okay, it wasn't an April Fool's Joke. I'm already getting similar information from my people.

To quote the late Former President Ronald Wilson Reagan: "There you go again." :rolleyes:
 
Sorry. It just perplexes me that someone who was so obviously at one point(or possibly still is) a dude and on top of that really isnt all that great a driver can have so much buzz about her.

Can I ask why Danica Patrick is popular in the first place? Shes not an overly great driver is hideously ugly.

You're crazy. Have you seen that sports illustrated swimsuit shoot she did!? SMOKIN!
 
Alli Owens in Nationwide.... she has not and will not do anything in ARCA.

15 starts
1 top 10 finish
2 lead lap finishes
Average finish 23rd

She has no business in Nationwide. It just goes too show that if you have the money too spend you can buy your way in. They better save some money to buy a car # for Nationwide to get her in the show. She will not
make the show on time. She should stick to writing in blogs and carrying her accessory dog around the track with her.... and the pink stripe in her hair....lmao...that just screams "Hey, sponsor me!" :sarcasm:

Gabi Dicarlo will be Sprint Cup ready..... please.

46 starts
3 top 10 finishes
11 lead lap finishes
Average finish 21st

There are only about 8 cars that can (or at least should) win in ARCA and these two are far from that group.

Gabi hasn't done anything to impress me. She 99% of the time is more of a weapon while driving. Can't count how many times I've heard over the radio "Get away from her before she wrecks us"

Alli isn't all that bad--just needs MUCH MORE seat time. She isn't afraid to get up on the wheel tho.

Her sponsors feel the same way most sponsors in ARCA do: It's not worth it to sponsor a car in a race that's not going to be televised or promoted in any way.

Maybe, if ARCA did a damn thing or two to promote their series, more sponsors would come and developing drivers would get more seat time.

Alli's a much better driver than some of her results show. But she needs a full season of ARCA, not just 10 races.
 
Andy, I'm so glad that the noted journalist in you got this info from one of your trusted sources. You just don't know how it tickles me that you have gotten the same word. Thank you Jesus!

Now Andy, if we are to take you for the soul information on this, find out who will be the owner of the car/truck that she will drive.

Oh man, I'm so jealous of you Andy. You are da man!
 
anybody would know it'd take her a good 2.5 years to get into cup- trucks/arca then nationwide before cup. And they obviously have to have deep pockets. Only people in that bill are Penske, Rousch, Hendrick. Rick could put Danica in a car when Jeff retires in 2012, but would he spend money just to have the 2 biggest phe-noms? Rousch is struggling to get rid of a car let alone bring danica in, so that'd be hard pressed to be likely. Penske could have Danica, Allgaier, and hornish all together, but what would he gain there, besides maybe, MAYBE a sponsor?

Hmmm, ever heard of Joey Lagano?

One thing you can be certain of, Danica WILL attract sponsors.

I have seen picture of "her". (S)he is very vomit inducing. Still wonder how (s)he hides her dong or if (s)he just bit the bullet and had it completely removed.

Seriously, she is hideous.

I have heard several say the same thing about Gabi. Something going on behind the scenes with that deal. She was listed at Milwaukee for the truck race and was replaced.....??? An ARCA race earlier this year they showed up at the track a day late....??? I hear a family member might be cutting funding and things at this point are race to race at best.

Whats wrong with you? She is not the hottest woman in the world but she is far from "very vomt inducing" (I can't wait to use that by the way). You can't seriously think she has/had a dong?

I disagree with you but thats a damn funny post.
 
I am being serious. I think (s)he is among the ugliest "women" I have ever seen. And yes, I wouldnt be shocked at all if she was born with a unit. It would explain her manly cheekbone/jaw structure, adams apple, and 12 year old boys body perfectly. And that disturbing part in her hair.

You are welcome for the catch phrase btw. If you use a wingman, make sure that that type of girl is the one you make him leave the aircraft carrier with if you know what I mean. It will help you know who your real friends are.

No offense but you may need to get your eyes checked. You obviously arent seeing that well.

Danica is the most beautiful girl on the planet by far, hands down. I know her and I have stood next to her and talked to her numerous times and she is an absolutely awesome, beautiful young woman.

As for her going to NASCAR, Im not going to get into all that discussion. I knew all these rumors, speculations and such would crop up a long time ago since her contract is up this year. Personally I know AGR will not just let her walk away that easy.

As I heard her say, she is focused on winning races and doing the best she can right now. She has a lot of options and they are being weighed out right now.

This post proves just one thing, you don't get out much.
 
You are entitled to your opinions, I am entitled to mine. I find her disgusting and most likely formerly a man(she literally has zero femanine features...this weeks winner Kasey Kahne is more chickish than Dan(her likely birth name) will ever be). You somehow find her attractive. I wont understand how you do.

And you find the one in your avatar....ah, nevermind:rolleyes:

Yep, she definitely has a man's body :sarcasm:

danica-patrick4.jpg


Nothing feminine about her at all :sarcasm:

danica2.jpg


And that hideous Medusa looking face of hers :sarcasm:

danica-patrick-2.jpg


Vomit inducing :sarcasm:

And a 12 year old boy's body :sarcasm:

danicapatrick.jpg


Nothing to look at her. :sarcasm:
 
I honestly just threw up my lunch.

The girl in my avatar is not hot but cute. Shes like the chick you would hook up with at a college party. Her name is Abby Elliot btw, cast member on SNL(and daughter of Chris Elliot). Just a fun fact.

And honestly, I find Danica Patrick disgustingly hideous. She looks like a man to me. She always has. The pictures of her literally disguist me. You arent going to convince me that this former dude is hot, I wont convince you otherwise either. So just stop.
