Sifty

[gregg52]

really ????????!!!!!

i take that bet ............lol

[Bryce]

Nascar is going to give her every break they possibly can is my predicition. Nascar has excellent vision when it comes to $$$.

[bottom-bouncer]

I am so sick of hearing her name! You would think she is the only one there makes me want to vomit.

[LMITOUT]

Even though she didn't finish due to being collected in someone else's wreck, she didn't do all that bad considering it was her first time racing this type of car.

[LMITOUT]

And now it looks like Edwards took out the field. What he do? Fall asleep? Unbelievable.

[bottom-bouncer]

I think she is good driver it just seems as though none of the t.v guys have ever seen a woman before. He may have that was abonehead move on his part.

[elkrivermn]

She is prettier then all of the pretty bois in Nascar.Funny thing is, she can outdrive three quarters of them!!!!!!!!

[gregg52]

i dunno bout being better thn 3/4 of the field

she probably has better equipment than 3/4 of the field

ya she was doing ok her last run there jeepers 3 hr pratice only thats not much going that fast

but i'm thinkin what happen today will happen to her alot because she will be running towards the middle to back alot

wont be her fault

[lawdog]

It is Daytona and you just take it for what it is and move on. Not much about a season is predicted by Daytona success, just ask Matt Kenseth!!

She is prettier then all of the pretty bois in Nascar.Funny thing is, she can outdrive three quarters of them!!!!!!!!

we will have to wait and see how she does. Got the first one out of the way even thow it was a crash and out!

[Johnsonator]

I don't think all the TV analists should be hyping her talent based on one race especially being it was a resrictor plate race. We will really see what she has got when she gets on some of the fast 1.5 mile tracks.

[SkunkedAgain]

The way that I look at it, she's a more successful driver than most of the ladies that have come before her. She's also much better looking than most lady racers, so that's another bonus. NASCAR wants more women to watch their sport, because that means more money.

I don't like the hype because I know that it's all money-driven, but I have no problem with ladies racing and hope that she does well so that it's not such a male-dominated sport. She's a good driver, got some spirit like the old Kurt Busch, and has enough of a persona to be marketable to NASCAR. What's not to like, except for the hype?

[gregg52]

shawna robinson was pretty good lookin i thought \

takes alot of make-up to make danica really hot

one of those other gals in that arca race i thought was prettier than danica

i think her name was ali not sure

ya the next couple of races will kinda give one an idea where shes headed

i think shes pretty smart but like i said she going to get wrecked alot and probably not of her doing alot of the times

just because she be running in the middle to the back

[bottom-bouncer]

I dont think were gonna see a lot of danica the reast of this year she is still going to do a full schedule of open wheel racing.

[gregg52]

she annoucned her schedule

shes doing 12 races

[SkunkedAgain]

I think that most of those 12 races are at the end of the season when she's done with open wheel

[LMITOUT]

They're kind of sprinkled out throughout the year, but yes, quite a few are at the tail end of the season.

[gregg52]

well shes in the next 2 i know for sure

[bottom-bouncer]

I hope she does well! I am just waiting for them to put a camera on her all the time and put it up in the corner of the t.v like a picture in picture..

[spearchucker]

well shes in the next 2 i know for sure

And we will hear about all race long from the announcers! I had to shut that race off because I couldn't stand listening to the announcers. She was the only one they talked about. If she is leading or making some good moves, then talk about her, otherwise give it a break. I don't know how many times they had to reiterate that "she wrecked, but it wasn't her fault, and she had nowhere to go..." Their were several other people in that wreck without fault also, but I couldn't tell you who they were because all they talked about was Danica. They even followed the crew pushing the car all the way to the garage. It was like the OJ Bronco thing all over again.

[HOF#13]

She did a lot better in the ARCA race than I thought, and seemed pretty timid in the Nationwide race. It'll be interesting to see how she does at the other tracks, but I am guessing she'll run in the 20's.

[gregg52]

ya will be hard to really judge her for awhile cuz she going to be in alot of wrecks

[Big Dave2]

Aside from Daytona, Patrick's 2010 season will include the race at Auto Club Speedway and the Feb. 27 race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

The rest of her schedule includes Nationwide races at Chicagoland Speedway (July 9), Michigan International Speedway (Aug. 14), Dover International Speedway (Sept. 25), Auto Club Speedway (Oct. 9), Charlotte Motor Speedway (Oct. 15), Gateway International Raceway (Oct. 23), Texas Motor Speedway (Nov. 6), Phoenix International Raceway (Nov. 13) and the season-closing race at Homestead-Miami Speedway (Nov. 20).
