#7 finished 11th at Richmond Armirola up.
BG...this is your weekend. You have the lead on trashing Danica this weekend. Please make us all proud! I know Danica herself won't disappoint by giving us all the opporutunity.
What an honor...I think! Oh, the pressure! Now I'll need to bring my A game to the thread. Of course, as you said, the opportunities might be endless, making the job easy. There are after all two races to choose from. Unfortunately, the one race isn't on TV until October 7 or something like that.Quote:

Waynes World was based in Aurora, Illinois, remember, Danica isnt that bright in the head, ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
"It's darty - I don't know - is that a help?"
Well, now, I'm impressed. Wallow around 25-30th all practice long, then slap a new set of tires and a quallie setup on it for the last 10 minutes, and wowie, one fast lap to push her up to 12th. Her average lap time for the whole session though, which to me is the telling factor, is still one of the slowest.
This wait-to-the-last-minute, slap new tires and go out for one or two laps is the m.o., regardless of which series she's in. She can do it for one, but putting it all together? Not really.
I wish that other series she runs in would post the average speed/average lap time for the session in addition to best lap, last lap. That stat shows who is all show, and who is all go.
I don't dislike her because she's female. I dislike her because she's a poser. All hype, very little substance.
I'm not necessarily defending her, but doesn't it happen that way a lot? I know in Cup you'll see drivers put up a fast lap late because they were working on race setups up to the end of practice and then they go out and make a run with a qualifying setup. I find you can't always rely on practice speeds because you never know what people are working on.
Ok, I am impressed that Danica finished 6th, on the lead lap, and somehow kept it off the wall. Although she thought that was "a heck of a lot of laps". Tomorrow should be interesting, if she thought 150 were a lot. The competition will be a good bit tougher and less forgiving too.
Pretty good run in the race that's the Star Mazda of NASCAR - fourth level down from Cup. Actually, it's series' like this that she should have started out in if she was truly serious about making this kind of change, but that wasn't in the PR plans at all. True racer, or media sensation? I think we know which won out, hands down of course.
And please don't mention Dario, Sam, or Dinger, or JPM. They were all multiple winners/champions before they made the switch. She's not on their level at all.
well for her to finish in the top 10 in a nationwide race is for 39 cars to crash, yeah, damaged cars are still gonna outrun her :p :
