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." http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...-2013/1926073/ http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/17/sport/...ing/?hpt=hp_t1 |

That is cool. Track is pretty simple to drive on. So it is more a nod to her race crew.

So for the first time at the start of a race everyone will be checking out her ass?
Whoever is right behind her needs to change his hood logo to...'I'm gonna tap dat!'

She doesn't gain HP, her HP is more effective, same as if you had a go-kart with NASCAR HP.

Nascar needs ratings, and BOOM Danica wins the poll.
Nothing to see here. |

Wish she was still open wheel. Greatly prefer Indy and F1 to NASCAR and their strategically equalized tin cans.
Appreciate the safety, but miss the raw power, speed and performance. F1 cars are so BAUCE, like earthbound rockets. Fascinating to watch. NASCAR is OK, but it's like watching Olympic sprints with tethers for Usian Bolt and making everyone run in Easy Spirit Pumps to create a closer race.

She won't. She will probably wreck the entire field. Lap 1, turn 2.

It is not official until after the dual 125s and the practice sessions. If she wrecks the car she goes to the back of the field. But only she and Jeff Gordon are guaranteed of spots in the field as of now. (According to the broadcast no more guaranteed spots to the top 35).

I'm not sure you understand sarcasm. And she is not a good stock car driver at all. She was ok at formula racing. She is way out of her league. She causes wrecks and acts like a menstruating bitch.
