So far, not a lot Danica talk, but thats because of ESPN newest love interest, Travis Pastrana is getting the attention so far

I lost interest when I saw qualifying results. Wish the cup guys would stay home and let the Nationwide guys run their own races.

As he and Ryan Blaney too should. Both of them are in front of her with 36 laps to go. Danika is a 6-8 year professional driver with one win in Indy Cars due to rain, fuel mileage and LUCK. Otherwise a less than mediocre career. She brings sponsor $$$ but her resume is real thin. I think nascar as well as most folks are now seeing Danika for what she is, just another race car driver..................nothing more, nothing less.
How about Chase Elliot and young Lajoie last night? They are for sure comers.

I think you are right , the only reason why she gets as much on air attention as she does is two words, go daddy, they are paying for her in car camera.
I am really impressed with Ryan Blaney as well, he has drove a great race so far

| I think I detect some humility in the Busch bros, and I hope so. For all the garbage of the past, it's old news. Congrats to both of them, and congrats to Mike Beam. The future looks bright for all those guys. As far as Danica goes, the bloom is off the rose. Average, at best. Whats the scoop on Pastrana? I don't know anything about him. PM me, lets don't start a firestorm. |

I am not looking forward to Darlington and all the hype FOX is going to have for her.
I will say, I am not a fan Kyle the person, but kind of nice to see that side of him

Yeah, the all danica all the time crap gets old in a hurry. Maybe it will be some great racing. I'm kinda looking foward to tomorrow night. Could it be two in a row for kurt? I still think he'll wind up somewhere in some top notch equipment. like him or not, it's hard to deny his talent. both of those bros can wheel a stock car. maturity is a good thing. |

No kidding. Im tired of hearing the same complaints on here. Someone always drums up something negative to say about her no matter how irrelevant it is to the thread. "_____ Danica" has replaced "Jr. _______ his dad" as the go to start of a derailment.
As for Kurt and where he'll wind up, I could see him getting that #20 car before the end of the season. |

Nice race for Stephen Wallace as well, finishing on the lead lap after a hiatus..
Johanna Long might end up being the female driver to watch if she can get in some decent equipment, has made a good showing for herself so far.. |

I too see the Danica train losing it steam. Excuses only last so long
Johanna 0 tv hype, i would like to see her in turner car.
Good job to Blaney, proud dad in post race.
Yes Kurt could be in 20 car, even if just temp. Ride.

My Apologies to Turner Motorsports. I had confused them with Curtis Key Plumbers in the "illegal bodywork thread." I take no pleasure in hearing of their penalties if unintentional.
Curtis/Turner easy mistake to make  |
