One th...I think Cup next year is far too ambitious. One thing I have noticed from all her in car shots, compared with everyone else. She is sawing on that wheel like there's no tomorrow. Jerky, tight, uncomfortable, and probably white knuckled under those gloves. While the others have a light grip on the wheel, smoothly turning, maintaining speed. <br /><br />You can't drive a Cup distance race like she does. The driver can't make it, and as a result, the car usually doesn't make it.<br />She came, she tried, she got all the media attention for being an 'also ran'. I know I have tired of the attention she gets for being a back marker. I have seen improvement on the Nationwide side, but its also been tempered with bad finishes, followed by finger pointing, or should I say wagging? I just don't see her as a threat to do much of anything in NASCAR.<br /><br />Buh-bye.Tedstrykerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03145139091575702367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24138427.post-16298736911137166442012-10-18T19:55:20.214-04:002012-10-18T19:55:20.214-04:00Comparing Patrick's flatlined (and crash torn)...Comparing Patrick's flatlined (and crash torn) stock car career to that of Juan Montoya or Sam Hornish ignores that Montoya and Hornish at least had legitimate racing credentials to cite where Patrick has throughout her "career" (be it Indycars or NASCAR) been handed quality racecars based solely on her gender and the absurd loyalty of GoDaddy sponsorship. She's not a run-of-the-mill racer because she uses her gender as an entitlement to be a superstar regardless of whether she warrants even casual attention.

Look a Johanna Long, has last weekend off, but still goes down to Five Flags and takes 2nd in front of the home crowd.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24138427.post-70562186436585584152012-10-18T12:44:36.003-04:002012-10-18T12:44:36.003-04:00The best thing for Danica to do is to spend anothe...The best thing for Danica to do is to spend another year in the Nationwide series. Her lack of knowledge/experience in the sport is really starting to show. Name me another driver on a Hendrick team that lasted 60 races with her type of results.<br />Will she succeed or will she be like the growing list of other open wheel drivers who have tried to cross-over and failed -- who knows. But in my opinion, allowing her to drive in the Cup next year will result in either her or someone else getting hurt because her rushing into something she is not rady for.
