Danica should sell panty hose somewhere and stay out of the way.

We will just have to see how it goes. Personally I don't think she has the patients to run the big tracks, but we will see. I don't think the other drivers will put up with her attitude. It should be interesting.

I doubt she makes it to the end of her 3 year contract with Andretti, and I'm ok with that. I will be able to watch Indy cars without the constant "Danica lovefest" that dominates the broadcasts. I don't watch nascar, so she can do whatever she wants there. Except for the constant TV spots, walking past the Danica pop machines to get into Walmart, and the "official" Danica shirts, hats, die cast cars, BBQs, pet food bowls, lamps, toothpaste, Doritos, snack cakes, toilet paper, school supplies, pop tarts, blankets, flags, lunchboxes, Christmas ornaments, etc etc etc, I will be able to ignore her. ;)

Media speculation currently has her in Mark Martin's ride after 2011. This should be great for Junior as I imagine that the "talking heads" will quickly forget about him and will quickly jump on board for the Dania show.

If we were talking about a man with the same credentials they don't get a sniff from the IRL owners.

SHe's had the best equipment in the IRL and a fluke win to show for it.

I hope JR has a lot of cars built, they will need them. She gets her panties in a bucnh with these guys and they will flat stuff her junk into the wall.

She's got mediocre talent at best. Just like Mikey, she will stay wherever she ends up IRL or NASCAR, because shebrings money to the tale andi is a sponsor dream.

THe only reason ROush would take her is money, he needs enormous amounts to keep those teams going. If she ends up there she will get the best they have to the detiment of others withmore talent, but less sponsorship.

NASCAR needs their TV ratings to go up and she is looked at as a possible solution. It's all about money. Tom

We or should I say Nobody will half to worry about it.She is starting in the ARCA series and wont make it out.She will create a hell of a pileup at Daytona in February and it probably wont even make it to the race.She wont be able to handle the stock cars.She can barely drive the Indy Cars.

It won't effect my life. I rarely watch NNS and Nascar in general. Nascar I'm sure loves this. The Nascar website is already proclaiming that "Danica is making her move to Nascar" when it's not really true. When the IRL starts she's done with it till IRL is over. These guys are desperate for a ratings increase losing so many fans. I doubt she sells tickets. This may tell us her impact on actual ticket sells in the IRL (would be interesting to know). Nationwide sells last season compared to this season.

Daytona Spdwy are already sending out e-mails stating that "Danica coming to Daytona". I want to see her and Juan tangle, that will be interesting :34:. You have to admit she does have a heck of a PR person that keeps her name out in the public, I just get tired of hearing about her and JR.

Oh my stinkin' heck. Now I'm going to have to watch NASCAR in order to keep my MiniDanica series updated.

I kind of wish that somebody would just give her a reality TV show so that cameras were constantly following her. She could retire from racing because she'd have her real need met.

I know it sounds catty, but I say this with a lot of history to back me up. I went to high school with Danica until she dropped out. MTV did a profile on her when she was a sophomore and I was a junior. On the day that the cameras were following her around school, I happened to be wearing a Sarah Fisher sprint car shirt. Total coincidence, I hadn't done it intentionally, I didn't even know the cameras would be there. The reporter/whatever saw my racing shirt (likely had no idea who Sarah was), stopped me in the hallway and was about to ask me a question on camera and Danica looked at my shirt, grabbed his arm and said "NO. NOT HER." and dragged him away.
