Even have the die cast models out in the Red Bud Fusion ,I don't collect them, guess it is not to hard for the China men to splash some lead paint on them and ship it!

Arca race.....Danica started last in one of Juniors cars, finished 6th or something....did very well in a wreck fest.

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Danica gets too much hype IMO. Has she ever won anything?

Agreed i watched the race and you would have thought she was the only car running. I hope she does well and when she does she should get the hype, but she needs to earn it .

[pullmytrigger]

she won an Indy Car race......

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

she won an Indy Car race......

And now she is a racing Superstar in all the commercials...Give me a break.

[Davidmnc]

she won an Indy Car race......

Yea.............one race............on fuel millage. Whooopty do!



But she is hot!

Look at Michael Waltrip and Kyle Petty, both rode the names and really didn't do much.

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Michael has had some success.

Jr needs to prove himself. He has the best of the best and hasn't delivered.

[Knot 4 Me]

I give her some credit for not putting the car on its lid like a lot of others did in the race. But yeah, you would think she was dominating Indy car from all the hype. Motegi is all she has won there and that was on fuel mileage.

Go Daddy Girl and racing Superstar.. The season has barely begun and I have already had enough.

[LAriverratt]

I didn't mined them talking about her some but holy crap they kinda over did it and wasn't there another woman driver in that arca race and she was in the top five up until the end

[pullmytrigger]

I agree they did over do it and I think there was 5 or 6 women in the field......

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Maybe the other girls should pose in bikinis.

good point have no idea what they look like but she is pretty hot

I couldn't agree more...she's not a bad driver but I think she's more of an Anna Kournakova than a true superstar driver...In five seasons of running the IRL she's amassed a total of one (1) win and three (3) poles in 81 races.

That doesn't strike me as being dominant at anything in that series and I don't expect her to fair any better in ARCA or Nascar.

It was kind of sad that all DW could say every other freaking sentence was Danica this and Danica that....come on already give it a rest I'm bored with the hype...

That and for most of the race she wasn't even the fastest women Allie Owens was running third for most of the race but Danica did managed to finish. It was a sad commentary that the only focus was on one driver who managed a whopping sixth place.

[Knot 4 Me]

She's going to run the NWS race on Saturday. She's in for a rude awakening. Sam Hornish won 3 IRL titles and cannot get out of his own way most weekends.

Funny, you guys are complaining about her, but how many of us regularly watch an ARCA race? You watched because there were chicks racing...

I only managed to catch the last 15 laps so I didn't hear the entire broadcast. But given that she's NEW to this, she ought to be cut some slack. I saw that she qualified 12th...but read somewhere she started at the back? Either way that's not a bad result for a rookie...male or female.

She also seemed to not mind to rub a fender here or there, at least in the last laps I saw. Am I the only one that would love to see her punt Kyle Busch? It'd be a great cat fight...and I think she'd take him!!!

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Its not just the race. Its the commercials too.

Sure I would love to see her punt K Baby but I doubt she can run with him.

[MacGyver]

Sure I would love to see her punt K Baby but I doubt she can run with him.

But K-baby probably cries more
