Nascar 2010

[kokopup]

You can bash Danica all you want, it isn't her fault they are making such a big deal out of her first Nascar race. I'm not easily impressed but she impressed me with her driving skills. If she wants to race Nascar then she WILL be successful. There is a learning curve she will have to go through but she is way
ahead of the curve. Just one Guy's point of view. I hate her commercials though.

I understand the hoopla regarding her driving in NASCAR.....


But all the women before her are chopped liver?

There were girls racing before her, that are getting a short shrift in the media,

She's not first woman to race in ARCA, NASCAR, NHRA, MX or Rally Cars.

She's a media 'push' for NASCAR, who should be promoting the women VETERAN DRIVERS who have paid their dues in stock car racing.

What happened to Jill George?

WHO?

If her name wasn't DP, then it's not newsworthy.


I just do not care for her 'personality'.


Remember, I lean to the right in politics, so, I like to see old, white guys win!!!!

I died when he climbed the fence.



So it makes you feel better?

I'd rather see a woman in a driving outfit than a half naked woman lying across an Indy Car.

Half the fun is peeling her suit off in my head....

LOL,

How many times have you violated Tony, Denny, Joey and Kyle in YOUR dreams?

My pick for fave to win it all, with 5 wins. Kasey kahne

Sorry, but poor Mark will be a brides Maid for a 6th time, if that close.

Richard, you dislike Dancia's personality, at least she has one. I dislike old
syrupy overly humble white guys. My 3 least favorite drivers: two of them their
numbers equal 16 and the other his number is 16. One is a cry baby, one
is unbelievably arrogant, and the old guy that is just in it for the fun.

Richard---------Jill George suffered a crash on Lap 27 when she flipped her car.

My problem with Danica has many facets:

"I want to make sure I'm doing what's right for the Danica brand" -From an interview last year about going to NASCAR

Danica brand? Gimme a break. How about making sure you can drive the damned things?

She whines constantly on the radio in traffic.

She has trashed other female drivers, downplaying what Sarah Fisher and Janet Guthrie have done in racing. When asked about other female drivers who aren't Danica she gets downright catty.

She runs down Dan Wheldon in the pits, grabs him and starts yelling at him......yet she has caused many on track incidents through overly aggressive driving, to be polite, and has been shielded from criticism by the media.

She has huge money behind her, and a huge marketing machine.....but what has she won? One race in the IRL, nothing before that in lower divisions..........Without her looks, she wouldn't be where she is. She's done NOTHING to deserve it besides pose cute for the cameras.

Classic instance of the media playing to her? She checked up last night because she lost the car a little in the bumps, and before they even had time to look at what happened, DW had accused the driver behind Danica of driving rough and bumping her.....replays clearly show Danica simply losing the car a touch and backing out of the throttle, there's 2-3 feet of daylight between her car and the one behind her, yet, DW still maintained his position that the other driver had hit her.

Anyone else? They just checked up for the bumps. Danica? Couldn't be her fault, blame it on someone else.

I'm tired of the coverage, she's a rookie, there are 80 other drivers at Daytona, and they're covering Danica as if she's already a four time champion. The post race interviews were priceles....they cut to Danicavision immediately after a very short interview with Bobby Gerhart, and she finished 6th. Normally they'd be going after interviews with the others in the top 5.

Enjoyed racing last night (just knew Tony wouldn't win), now I can't wait for next week

You know Richard, I kept rooting for that GO DADDY car...then I remembered...oh yeah it's not Danica it's Mark Martin

I know this was directed at Anna, not me, but since we pretty much have the same fav drivers....

1 is way too young, 1 is way too ugly, and as for the other two, well, that is more of a discussion for the eyecandy thread!

[anna_66]

Yeah Amy!

I even felt too old getting my picture taken with him
