Should be interesting!

I hope this race is half as good as Wednesday's Truck Race!!
 
I hope it's twice as good. Funny how NASCAR has lowered our expectations over the years.
 
Well guys...as much as we love to question...Danica can never be called the Anna Kournikova of racing...because she did win this one one.

and Michael Waltrip has won 2 Daytona 500 wins. Sometimes it's better to be lucky then good. Thankfully Danicas luck is a lot like her talent, non-existent.

That's bull-sh!t and you know it...she saved fuel early in that last run at Motegi...leaned it out and ran good fast lap times, then stepped on the gas and used what she saved...You can't take the Motegi race away from her pal. You just can't...she won fair and square against the best open wheel drivers in the USA. period.

That's not saying she will ever win a nascar race...different thing...but she ain't no loser...she won an Indy Car race.

No way Waltrip could have done that.

Can you imagine Michael Waltrip dealing with fuel issues and having to do something himself in the racecar to actually win the race? It would be brain overload.

He would be in the wall and have tires flying everywhere.

1 win and 7 podiums in 115 starts. The lackluster below average stats speak for themselves.
 
It's funny how people now take up for Patrick when remembering how DanicaFan was treated when he first joined. I wonder how many remember what they said about Danica back then? I know I haven't forgotten;)
 
Trevor Bayne was fastest in this first and only practice with a speed of 120.687 mph.
 
Yeah, Danica was unhappy with the her car, she didnt have as good as a practice as I hoped for. She was 28th quickest.

From watching it at home, the car seemed very stiff in the front compared to other cars. Hopefully she can pick something up in Cup practice working with Zippy that can help her Nationwide car.

IDK, it seemed to me her rear was a little looser than most. Too many moving parts.
 
C'mon now guys...it's not like she is simply selling sex....if that were the case I would get off her bandwagon immediately. The lady is a racer...pure and simple. (is that a hair extension?)

You're right. She's also selling web domains, antifreeze and insurance. She could benefit from running ARCA abd some K&N races to get a feel for what she wants in a car. Seens with the exception of road courses lately the car is never to her liking. It's a lot more than bad luck like she and Eury are convinced.
 
Freakin tennis on instead of cup qualifying, dumbasses.
