I figured I would start up an official thread for the Nationwide race Saturday, the Sam's Town 300 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The race is on at 4:30pm Eastern on ESPN.

They had a practice session today. Danica was 23rd, not bad.

Here are the results..

Well, that sucks, Michael McDowell takes Danica out of the race at lap 84.

She did another great job.Really picked up some speed when Kevin was helping her.Wish she could have caught a caution there.Michael McDowell took full responsibility.

I've been a Danica Fan for a few years now, so I don't want people to think that I'm bashing her like the haters. I've watched all her NASCAR races, and I have seen no evidence that she will ever finish in the Top 5 in a Nationwide race.
 
Yeah, he was pissed. And he should be pissed man. If it was one bad pit stop once in a while, it'd be one thing. But it's several bad pit stops, every single week.

Maybe I should go apply for a job at KHI.:D

They just might be having a hiring boom :D

Yeah,after three races I can tell if a driver will ever finish in the top five too.Can't everybody?

I'm thinking she wasn't hired to race up front, well not this year anyway. The Nationwide series just needed Danicamania for the start of the season to get some new fans.
