I won't get into the argument about whether Danica is good or bad...either for the sport or as a driver. I will say that if you haven't driven a racecar (or bike) over 200 mph on a track somewhere, you have absolutely noright to gripe. No matter how a person get his/her ride...looks, money, relatives, or old-fashioned pull, going fast is what it is all about. It takes a certain something to be able to tighten up the straps and press the loud pedal, no matter how you got the chance. I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I was able.

In more important news, a real  to E Sadler.
Randy any idea where you would finish, cut her some slack. Give her a year, then if she still has not performed, then let her have it.

That sounds like mid-pack to me... A lot of racers finished behind her too!

I gave her 2010 and 2011 (two years) to prove herself, I've seen enough !!!!

Danica ran a good solid race, picked up 8 or 9 spots from her starting position, kept the car out of trouble, managed her frustration well and finished solidly mid-pack....not a bad day at all.

I have to chime in here....
So now we are in Phoenix but despite all the Formula classes and LeMans type cars, Fox calls Nascar drivers "the best drivers in the world."
As for Danica I wonder just how many of her critics could beat her.
Anyone ever heard of Lynn St. James...?

Okay--novice question time again. Watched the race today at Phoenix. No Danika. Nothing was said about her that I caught.
Anyone know where she was today?

She is not running a full Sprint Cup schedule, only selected races.
