Excited Danica had a good finish ! Well past 50 laps as some grouchy old men had expressed ! I was screaming the whole time BK was leading for her to drop inside in front of jimmy, don't guess they heard me.

Hey badbuck I see you have been let out of timeout. Let me hear it, she done good !
-
what is good? a finish like her typical indycar finish? 8th to 10th? yes no crash...
3rd to 8th on the last lap?
she was out-raced by the racers...
but in soccer, we all all winners!

I agree the experience of Dale Jr. and the others paid dividends on the last lap. However she done good.Originally posted by Groundpounder View Postwhat is good? a finish like her typical indycar finish? 8th to 10th? yes no crash...

Me thinks Carol is a closet Danica fan. Don't be afraid darling, it's ok.Originally posted by carolwicks View Post don't be afraid of what those guys that are afraid to get beat by a girl say. Personally, I love watching women prevail over men in sports. Except when they beat me.

How many pole sitters have won the daytona 500 ? This bullshit analogies can go on forever. She done good.Originally posted by Groundpounder View Post
I'm a David R fan too, but he dropped like a rock on the last lap. Of course he's driving junk. ( beat you to that analogy )Comment

There was 32 drivers behind her that would have given their left one to be where she finished. Give credit where credit is due! She drove a good race! So man up and admit it!Last edited by flvideo; 02-24-2013, 05:30 PM.Comment

Your comment is complete BS.Her team was decimated , Tony out and Newman not competitive. She had no dance partner at the end but did stay out of trouble and made no boneheaded defensive moves. For what it is worth your alliances mean more at DIS than your driving skills. No she didn't win but like they said at the top of the show only 17% do.Originally posted by Groundpounder View Postwhat is good? a finish like her typical indycar finish? 8th to 10th? yes no crash...

She got hung out there at the end, lot's of drivers do. She still did a very good job all race long. Had good stops, didn't make any mistakes that i noticed.
As for the race itself, that was terrible. Single file follow the leader for 90% of the race. No one wanted to risk trying a pass, so they just rode around. That's what happens when NASCAR designs the car. I imagine there will be plenty of new aero changes before the next superspeedway race.Comment

The problem was with the drivers, not with the car. They chose to ride in line for 180 laps. When it came time to pass, when they had to get going, the cars could run door to door very evenly.
It was the first Cup race I"ve watched for a long time. Too bad they didn't start racing earlier.
Glad to see Danica do so well!Comment

I know some short track drivers that given the same opportunity would do good also. Top caliber team, sponsor and equipment. She has been given a great opportunity because of who she is. Most talent that deserves such a ride doesn't get a chance to.Comment

biffs and danikas spotters both missed the chance for their driver to win. they should have seen the run dale jr. had and told their driver to drop low in front of him well before he got to themComment
