She’s going to find out that throwing her hissy fits in the NASCAR pits won’t fly.

Patrick does this, Patrick does that , It’s all we will hear at NASCAR next year.
Still I believe she can probably beat Jr.s record this year.
We will just get tired of the hype.

There’s more money to be made in NASCAR.
The vast majority of money made by NASCAR racing teams doesn’t come from winning races, it comes from sponsorships. There is no risk here for her. As the only female NASCAR racer she’ll pull in tons of sponsor money. Win or lose.

You scream around a 2.5 mile oval at 250+MPH in a fragile, open wheeled race car, where one mistake can end you life. Well, guts is one thing you should have in good supply.

She will make a lot of cash marketing to the NECKCAR folks.

From another article:
“It’s all part of a master plan. She will make her stock car debut in the ARCA race at Daytona on Feb. 6, the day before she appears in two GoDaddy.com commercials during the Super Bowl.
GoDaddy.com CEO Bob Parsons is investing millions here, including the two-year deal to sponsor the No. 5 Cup car of Mark Martin. The plan is obvious. Martin drives two more years, then hands over the 5 car to Patrick in 2012.”
The money is already in the bank.

I was definititly not one of her fans. But this is ‘a gutsy move’, and her stature has went up in my view.

I slept with Danica Patrick. - Now wheres my money? Dude, the act itself was reward enough.
But if you insist; here's a penny 0. I think it's worth about .025% of a dollar.

I think she might have outgrown that.

I don’t see why not. Many of the male drivers throw hissy fits in NASCAR pits already.
To: AFreeBird
Gutsy would be driving for USF1.....

I say just let her drive.. she bomb she bombs.. she runs top 20, look out early on.. she’ll be spreading herself around a lot with all the driving. More power to her if she can pull it off.

What’s a “NASCAR”? Is that the fake racing? Sorta like big time wrestling?

F1 is run by a bunch of prissy self absorbed snobs. I have no interest in F1. Never went out to "The Track" when F1 was here in Indy.

There is no crying in NASCAR (baseball). What race did this chick win? Huh? Some rice in Japan where nobody noteworthy even was entered. SO she beat a bunch of never was guys that had minor support. Kinda like beating up on The Little Sisters of the Poor. A lot of hoopla over nothing.
