Here is what Adam Carroll's car looks like. I love this paint scheme but this is Danica's paint scheme and always will be. They should of done something different.

Anyone want to bet on how many laps it is before Milka either gets in a crash or gets blacked flagged for going to slow?

One of those scenarios will definitely play out. Im hoping she is too slow for practice and they dont put her out there for qualifying.
 
where would the irl be without danica and milka for fans to talk about? is there a male irl driver that could generate as much interest, good or bad, as those two? i doubt it or we would be seeing it. love them or hate them danica, and to a lesser extent milka, are good for the sport because people talk about them and tune in to see how they are doing. irl and tv execs don't care squat about why you watch a race, just that you watch it. <g>

How can we be informed about any of the other drivers? That's all the news agencies will cover.

Milka on the other hand gets attention from me because I firmly believe someone somewhere is going to either die or get severely injured due to her horrific lack of driving skills.

Why even let Milka out there.She's 5 MPH slower than the next slowest car.
Click to expand...

She was getting lapped at Iowa at a rate of once every 8 or so laps before she was parked. If they're really that slow, maybe Barnhart should "suggest" they stay home until they can figure something out.

Or maybe they should adopt some sort of 107% rule?
 
Would like to know just how much money Hugo is paying the IRL to let Milka race in every race. What's that old saying "money talks bs walks".
