Not necessarily a NASCAR/racing thought....

It's all about DP and her winning.

And what about all the other women who's shoulders she stood on to get there? Not only in open wheel racing, but in karts, drag, Indy car racing?

I can name a few right off the top of my head, Janet Guthrie, Ashley Force, Shirley Muldowney, Angie Semple. I forgot the gal who raced in the pink car for a while in stock cars.....

In these days of big money contracts there are very few sports and very few arse-leaks (My brother's term for athletes who think they poo don't smell)
who don't stop and think or thank everyone that came before them.

Example? Baseball. Those sissies (I love the game, hate the prices and some of the players) who ask for jillions of dollars to play a game where the worst is getting hit in the head with a ball....

Ask them about some of the history about the game and they can't tell you who Curt Flood is. Like, isn't that what happened after Katrina?

Yep, it's great that a woman won a race, I would have rather seen another gal do it....Not some Sports Illustrated bikini model.

----------------------

If you hear her mention any woman who paved the way for her win, let me know. It will probably be someone named Danica, who did it all on her own.

--------------------

I'd love to see her in NASCAR and go after a driver like she did last year...

BOOM BOOM, Out go the lights!

Then she'd cry and talk about people picking on her because she is a woman.

O.K., I don't have the bits to race at 200 mph, but she does.
