    Haha, I won the pool with Danica

    Look,this my opinion and its not a popular one.I think Johanna Long has more talent.Danica has the best of everything! a Tony Stewart prepared car.A Hendrick motor.Additional support from Dale jr's team.Yes,she finished 12th in a race at Martinsville where drivers wreck often and get shuffled back.

    She has a mojor sponsor in Go Daddy,that if ANYONE eles drove that car,they would at least,win a race.Long competes near the top 15 every week in the NATIONWIDE series,with a very underfunded race team.No Hendrick motors,no Earnhardt jr.,no Stewart,no nuthin'.

    It doesnt mean that Patrick doesnt have talent,she should get MORE than what she gets out of her cars,both SPRINT and NATIONWIDE series.

      Given the exact same car

      Jo Long would say so long to Danican't every time.Danican't is a finesse driver much more suited to a much lighter open wheel car,not trying to manpower (excuse me womanpower) a much heavier stock car around.She benefitted greatly from the free pass wave around existence that is Martinsville,and will possibly do the same at Bristol.She may even finish well at Watkin's Glen or Sonoma considering she does have road racing experience and so many of the Nascar boys struggle at both places.But my own feeling is she will continue to underperform on the mile and a halfs.

        Slowly, steadily, Danica is becoming a vereran. I respect Miss Long quite a bit, but the fact is she has not outrun Danica. Nope, Johanna has not had the chance yet. One day she'll get the chance, and you may want it happen, hope it happens, expect it to happen, but meanwhile Danica is gaining experience every week.

        And yes, she has a caboose that just won't quit.

          You can sugar coat it all you want....

          ....but the fact is she still sucks.

          Danica, I mean.
          Johanna Long is a helluva race car driver.
          More talent in her right ankle than in that entire media-hyped, over-promoted sideshow that is "the Danica"

          Although in her defense, so do about 70 percent of the other non-driving, pay-to-play "race car drivers" that make up a NASCAR field these days.

          Don't care what track. Don't care what series. Don't care what sex.

          They just plain suck.

          For the most part you're watching a scant few who actually have a working knowledge of the rolling billboard they are steering, driving in and around a larger number of adolescent, "daddy do the servants have my race car ready yet?", trust-funded posers.

          In all honesty, I can't see how anybody can attend a NASCAR race or even watch it on TV and not come away feeling disillusioned and cheated.
          The best drivers in the country? Hardly.

          Anytime a team owner is more concerned with sending his driver to a classes in public speaking and how to work with the media instead of having him rack up seat time in a lower division, short track race car.....something has surely gone very, very wrong.

          To sum up:

          Danica = sux
          NASCAR = sux
          Boneman's chances with Danica = zero (nice caboose remark notwithstanding)



          The "O" Man


          Here's a PS......Mr. Westerman may have to help ya'll out with this one....Woman driver that I think could probably whip Dandica's ever growing ass?

          Lillian Vandiver.

                Vicky Wood.... and she's damn near 90 now. (Very sweet woman by the way. Dave may know her also).

                  Really? Arlene made a total of ONE Indy car start, and by the time she was 22 laps behind, she was black flagged for going too slow.

                  Lillian Vandiver raced the Goody's Dash cars. They are less powerful than a modified mini stock, and she never won.

                  Vicky Wood was successful in the straight line, single car flying mile contests. Did she do much oval racing? Clearly she was a ground breaking driver in her time.

                  Louise Smith had a long and successful career. The problem is she raced in an age when the cars were so much slower than what is raced today. How can you assume that skill at 120 mph then would equate to skill at 200 today?

                  Look, I happen to love women racers and I don't want to be critical of any of them (well, maybe Arlene Hiss). The fact is, you guys are going through contortions because you resent the attention that follows Danica. You don't have to like her, but a little respect is in order.

                  Is she the fastest woman driver so far? Yes, today she is. Like anyone on top, someone will knock her off that spot one day.

                  Boneman's chances with Danica = zero
                  Hey, not so fast! I happen to know she likes old bald guys with a house full of kids and a jealous wife. I'm expecting my call any day.

                    The reason I don't have to give Danica any credit

                    Because Boneman has already given her enough for the both of us.
                    The more attention they give her , the further I am from accepting her.

                      That does seem to be the overriding reason some people have for not liking Danica, the perception that she gets too much attention. How is she responsible for getting too much attention? She shows up at the track and drives the race car. If you want to hate someone for the publicity she gets, blame the writers and the tv networks that follow her around every moment of every day. She finished 12th at Martinsville, and we all know it takes a lot more than luck to finish that well at that track. She did a good job. And she'll probably do just as well at Texas. Maybe better, she's got a good finishing record there.
                      If Ms. Long were a better driver than Danica she'd be racing full time in Cup right now.

                        Y'all rednecks don't like no one that weren't brought up in a trailer park. I can say this cause I is one too, but I love me some Danica.

                          Wrong Matt.... if Johanna looked better in a bikini, she would be in. Her appearance doesn't have the 'hot factor' that Danica has. It has ZERO to do with Danica being more talented.... she's just cuter.

                          Put Becca Kasten in Hendrick equipment, and that car would finish much better each week than it does. But, she will NEVER get a chance. Why? The Nascar world isn't ready for marginally attractive gay girls who can drive the wheels off, but doesn't make a good visual presentation.

                          Its ALL about the looks, not about the talent.

                            I agree on all parts but this one above.

                            No one has written Ms. Long a fat check to get into the big show.

                              Tony agreed to hire Danica because he knew she could drive, he watched her race Indy cars.. I'm sure that bring along the Go Daddy sponsorship money helped, though the Go Daddy money is one of the smaller sponsorships in CUP. I happen to think there are better female racers than Johanna, and I think Danica is one of them. I imagine Tony thought so too. So did Dale Jr.

                                Go Daddy is HER primary sponsor............she brought the $$$ with her.

                                I agree there may be better divers than i mentioned, that was just the one compared to in this thread.

                                If i brought a big enough check or sponsor I could be racing in CUP right now.

                                A team would scoop me right up if they already knew what decals to put on the car. Hell, there are about 15 rich kid field fillers in there now.

                                Tony knows her indy background as he has one as well. Jr just wanted the publicity and free $$$.
