Mostly, I think she needs to eat a sandwich...... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
I read her interview in FHM some time ago and she came off as an arrogant, road raging idiot. Then, our local TV station test drove the new Honda SUV with her and while she was driving, he was in the back doing the inteview and she said something like "just as long as everyone stays out of my way, we'll have a good drive" (or something equally stupid). I'm guessing it's a persona that she thinks race fans would like, mostly she sounds like a spoiled brat when she opens her mouth. She can drive and drive well, but anger management might help with the rest of it. I suspect that dad realized that there is a ton of money in NASCAR and that she should run there in an effort to make a very large fortune (like Tony Stewart). It's smart business, but I wonder how the "good ol' boy" network will handle her? I think NASCAR is more ready for her now than they were 10 years ago, but I still have to wonder how that might play out. If nobody will draft with you, you will not get very far on many tracks. It would be intersting to follow (not that I'll watch the races, but I'd be curious to see how it worked out). When was the last female driver in NASCAR? |

(IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif) As far as Danica in NASCAR....it is a match made in heaven.....or at least Vince McMahon's office....I MEAN the France Families office (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) ....since NASCRAP is nothing more than ENTERTAINMENT on wheels....it follows that they would look for the next father managed brat that could be MARKETED into $$$$ for NASCAR ala a road racing Jessica Simpson.....EVERYDAY, NASCRAP sinks to new lows....I just wonder when racing fans will wake up and turn the crap off....then I realize how populare the WWE is in America and forget about it..... I used to respect Danica, until the whole idea of her moving on at a time where she seems to be going BACKWARDS in IRL.....she needs to complete what she started THERE before moving on anywhere......anything else is just USING her sex/looks....and that is the easy way out IMHO.... |

(IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif) A friend had the issue and said "here, read this". So I did..... unfortunately. And I still don't think she's that cute and I've seen her in person from a distance of less than 5 feet (and not wearing a driving suit). I was at the CART "Town Hall" meeting that they held here in Columbus a few years ago. I can't say I read much motorsports anything these days. I let my subscription to Grassroots Motorsports lapse (I put in for the free copy that renews your subscription about 2 years ago and never heard from them). I don't read Car Craft, Hot Rod, or much else. I do sometimes read Motor Trend and Car and Driver, but only when my friend is done and sends me his back issues. Sadly, Hot Rod and all can only do so many articles on how to degree a cam and they all sound alike. After many years of reading them, the only things I'd like to see now are the reviews on AFR heads, an LS1/2 cam test, etc but I don't ever look to see what's in them these days unless the cover catches me and I buy a random issue. I guess I need to start reading motorsports literature. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) |
