    It isn't the car Danica...it is the space between the steering wheel and the seat.

    I do feel sometimes like I'm in an alternate universe, or in a perpetual groundhog day, where Danica's cliched old story gets trotted out every week by the same old media who treat it as something new and exciting. Yeah, she's a cute girl doing car racing, yeah we've heard it endlessly for the last 5 years. Enough already.

    Oh, this is too funny.

    I remember when Patrick was looking like she would become a CART driver. I remember saying to a CART fan that she had never won a race before. He came back with a long dissertation on how good she was because she had finished second in a Formula Ford race in Great Britain one time.

    Then she went to the IRL and the CART fans panned her as a nobody and the IRL fans considered her as the great savior of open wheel racing in America. A NEW DAY HAD DAWNED.

    Now she's dabbling in NASCAR and the IRL fans have panned her just like the CART fans did a few short years ago.

    Too effin' funny.
    DVR . . . . . Life is too short to watch commercials.

    Lee you haven't been paying attention. IRL fans have been cynical of Danica since 2004/5.
    2nd place in the big quizz challenge!

    All that matters is the future Danica/Anna Kournikova godaddy shower scene commercial - everything else is just waiting...

    Danica isnt all that great looking, make-up can make anyone woman look better.

    now Anna on the other hand
    Brian France is a violation of Section 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing)

    Seriously Lee or Roy, or whichever of those is your first name...he's more than right. There aren't many serious race fans that don't know what a sham she is. Before you start casting your synical attitude toward it, spend a few hours going back through the forumns over the past 2 or 3 years. It has nothing to do with what series she's in, she's been a failure in all of them. The same thing is going to happen for her in NASCAR, all this media, all these swarms of fans, when she's running mid to back pack in top equipment week after week it'll all fade. History will repeat itself, it always does. Big diff is that the fall from NASCAR grace will be more swift and a much harder impact...as in game set match.

    Sadly, TURN3, I don't know if that will happen, at least not quickly. It seems that she has an incredible PR department that clearly is effective at spreading The Big Lie that she is a great racecar driver and I doubt the media has the intelligence necessary for critical thinking. I don't doubt that she will be exposed as a low talent, overhyped never-was but I don't see that happening until after she's retired.
