Hmm, well I'll take e, 100 laps (never said she would be leading) and for who she will be with afterward, I was kinda hoping it would be me.  Wink

OK, I choose 100 because that's the biggest lap count.  As far as who she's with after the end of the race, I assume it'll be her husbang but, that doesn't mean I don't think she's hot.  Cause, I don't care who you are, that's one hot lady.  As far as her driving ability, I think she's about average.

Wow, kind of a cheap shot, and needlessly sexist comment, don't you think?  Embarrassed I'm kind of sure that no matter what she chose to drive, she would be passing you in about lap two. And your insinuation that somehow she got the ride she is in by "humping" someone really is not called for either. With all the scrutiny she has been subjected to, no one has ever dug up anything of that nature about her.

I guess some guys just have trouble admitting that a woman can do well in a what has been traditionally a  Man's game. Sad viewpoint none-the-less. Shocked

Considering she is ranked 11th in the Nationwide Tour and has a Top 10 finish there may be more to her than the sleazy ball characterization that she can't drive or is humping someone in the pits.

If you watch many of the races you find that she like many of the other drivers have crashed or intentionally been hit by other drivers.  What is important is she hasn't made any excuses for her performance.

Plus she has brought a different level of publicity to NASCAR other than the redneck, beer drinking fan base.  It's drivers and sportswomen like Danica who help open up many opportunity for our daughters by breaking down the sexist walls put up.

OBTW, many of the drivers are now using the crash techniques brought over from Indy Car and drivers like Danica to increase survivability.  And she's not bad looking either.

Jr and Tony Stewart wouldn't have picked her if she was a no talent driver, even though she brings the sponsor $$.
To insinuate she got where she is by less than hard work and talent is unfair, classless, bit smarmy, and just a sad statement. IMHO

Whoa, you really believe  the dollars and fans she brings in had nothing to do with Stewart's and Jr's decision?  It's all about money.  While  I agree she's at least an average driver and I'm not suggesting she hasn't worked hard to get as good as she is, she's worked just as hard, if not harder to sell her image.  I don't blame her, she's hot.  But, I doubt the average male driver that had her NASCAR record the first few years she raced NASCAR would still have a ride.  It's about the whole package and what she brings to the track, the TV coverage, the attention she brings to NASCAR and that team.  The fans who spend money.  If she just drives and plays blocker for the team, then she's done her part.

Danica is a dud..........she will be out there and you will never see her win.

This is old news, My Dad had a female driver,,,it did not work out.

Janet Guthrie still holds the record of female to run the Nascar World 600 at Charlotte.

She ran at Indy as well. and in Nascar she did not do as well but made history at both Indy and Daytona.

I worked the Pit Crew at that time...Ralph Moody of Holman Moody did the engines. Booby Harrington built the cars.

Legends all, including my old man, who is still driving Hot Rods at 74 years young.

My Dad coached her on her way to win.

Well she never won, other than being the first.

Not Danica but this lady.

I was surprised when Danica switched to NASCAR.  I thought she would go on to Formula One since she had open wheel experience.  She could have been the next American Grand Prix champion.  It's been over 30 years since Mario Andretti won the title.

I was deep in NASCAR tech country today in Mooresville, NC. Saw a few racers workshops and the NASCAR Tech Institute where budding wrenches and pit crew learn the trade
