Danica Patrick Wins Pole Position For Daytona 500
 

I normally don't follow NASCAR too much, I prefer open wheel/Indy Car racing.

I do watch the Daytona 500 and other big races though.

This just happened today and it was history so thought I would post it.

Danica Patrick won the pole position for this years Daytona 500, first time in history for a woman.

I guess you gain some extra horsepower when you only weigh 100 lbs.

Not sure if it's going to matter much, she always seems to find a way to screw it up.


"Danica Patrick became the first woman to win the pole position for the Daytona 500, considered the Super Bowl of NASCAR, posting a lap of 196.434 mph Sunday."

There's a thread for this, dumb****.

The only thing she will win in Daytona evar

I missed it.

Then please merge.

What will she be wearing on that pole and when will she be performing ??:p

The anals of history.

I'd be willing to lay money that she'll be out before the race is half over.

She'll get pushed out of the way or into the wall by one of the good ole boys.

So many puns, so little time...

She got rid of her excess dead weight husband. Lightened her load.

I'm glad you started this new thread... It has the word position in it, and when to comes to DP, position(s) are an awesome thought! Rep!

LMAO

Yes, because winning the pole means jack and shit.

Well I agree and disagree. For something that's nothing, they sure do work their asses off to win it. But you're right, especially in a restrictor-plate race, past the publicity, it means little.

But it's nice to think that a hot-chick will be leading the way on the first lap...

Danica is great PR for NASCAR

And not a single Pioli was given. Haha. I used the word P I O L I. And I evaded the filter!!!!! BAN HAMMER NUT HOOKS WAHOOO!
