I'm not a hater or anything, but at this point isn't Danica a known quantity? Never won a nascar race, only won an indy race once... it would seem that if she weren't female she'd still be a no-name driver in the IRL

She is in Nascar because she is cute and has a BIG Sponsor.... You are correct...

There are ghost tracks up and down that part of the country. North Wilkesboro, Asheville, Caraway...

You live in a pretty good place - I wouldn't mind moving to the Carolinas if the opportunity presented itself. I'd have two homes in my dream scenario - one along the beach in southern SC, and one nestled in the mountains of western NC.

A lot of sandwich there, 3rd&48ers...:D

The King [circa 1930's]:

just kidding

I guess that everyone else in nascar probably feels like if she's bringing money and media attention in and not beating anyone, everybody wins. (except her)

The race will never happen. The King has nothing to lose and Patrick has everything to lose.

I don't follow Nascar at all but when she switched over it seemed like it was a sponsor/cash grab rather than something that was good for her on track career.

Well she does have to Qualify for the races too, so she does have some talent at driving and has won a pole... You have to be fearless to qualify 1st at a Nascar track.

I bet that Danica ends up competing in Formula E.

Sounds about right...

Would they race on an actual track or just one of those ovals?

LMAO

Yes

Speaking of Formula - My boy was second quickest in testing on Saturday in Bahrain.

I doubt she could even beat Kyle Petty
