As much as many seem to profess that the NASCAR broadcasts are all about Danica, that's simply not the case. Not even the top 10 in mentions.

Someone actually tracks this stuff? I guess so. Where does your driver rank?

Yeah, this is cool. I know there is an marketing analysis firm in Michigan somewhere that tracks how long a company's name/logo is visible due to motorsports sponsorships and reports back how many how many millions of regular TV commercial time it was worth.
 
Have to admit it has quieted down from Daytona when the national media was telling us that everyone who refused to admit she was an elite driver was now forced to eat crow.

She's doing better than I thought she would even with a top team but if she were male she'd be driving trucks or nationwide.

This is more of a SHR crack than a Danica comment , but that group are not permorming like a 'top team' . I guess that Tony has put a test team together to do constant testing , to try and identify their problems . Maybe that will help.

Or just take the Joey Logano route, just act like an ass and get everybody talking about you and your feuds with other people.

She is good, she is finishing races and giving information throughout a race to allow Tony to get her further up the field. She is fearless, this is the most impressive part to me,..not scared of walls, driver sides or anything, got more balls then most men on this earth, and she has gotten into some nasty wrecks in the last 8 months.

If I would say she has one drawback that may hold her back from being a serious contender, she has a temper and looses priorities inside the car. She would throw away a win if you pissed her off enough to go after you. This is both detrimental,.and hot as hell! :D I wouldn't want to be her man,...yikes!!

Or run into sam, wreck two cars, bring out the caution, and change the ending of a race. That worked for her last year.

Her first races, they went over board. Now she's like the new Stephen Wallace. Im always watching to see what she will do next.

The media dropped Danica Patrick after Daytona.

I agree with Matt and MoeJoe.

Logano is quickly becoming the next driver they'll soon forget about as he hasn't done SFA to warrant all the attention he seems to get.
