If Danica wins the pole today I think I would throw up.
(And be finished watching NASCRAP)

No reason to throw up if someone earns something! Hell, I'd like to see her win the damn race!

I agree. If you earn it.... tip your cap.
Anyway, she.won't win the pole, she's already outside the top 12.
As far as the race goes, she has a shot. It'll most likely turn into a wreckfest (anyone see that shitshow of an ARCA race last night?) and at that point anyone has a chance.

Apparently you really don't think it "NASCRAP" or you would have already quit watching it...
Just out of curiousity did you throw up when she won the pole as a rookie? If you didn't throw up and quit watching it back then, I can't see why you would now...

I'm not gonna watch, don't really care, but I'd be fine with her winning
However, Larson would be better....

I watch the restrictor plate races all the way through. The rest of them I watch until Larson is no longer in contention.

I think it's a kind of yogurt? Do they sponsor some NASCAR team?

why would some num nut like you be so upset if Danica won pole or race? She is in a quick get together deal so she has done well so far. Danica has more balls than you do. Tell me the last time you drove 200mph with a bunch of other cars around you. The Indy 500 is probably the most dangerous race for drivers in this era. Do you have enough balls to drive 230mph on a narrow track and turn 1 is sort of blind. Let us know.

Danica’s fanboys are ALWAYS using the “I’d like to see you do better“ argument but it’s a ridiculous argument. My job is not to be a professional NASCAR driver so of course she’s going to do better than I could - That doesn’t mean she doesn’t still suck as a NASCAR driver (Johnny Manziel is also a much better QB than me but he still sucks as a professional NFL QB).
The other big argument is “Oh, you don’t like Danica because you’re sexist”, which again, is ridiculous. I would love to see a woman come in and win NASCAR races but the fact of the matter is Danica has actually hurt females chances in NASCAR and professional racing as a whole. She has exploited her sexuality (while pretending that she wants to be treated like every other driver) and basically been nothing more than a marketing gimmic. She is the first woman who has ever been given the absolute best equipmen/opportunities and she has consistently failed, all the while being one of the highest paid NASCAR drivers.
She did decent in a few INDYCAR races, back before they had a car/driver combined weight rule but after they implemented the new weight rule and everyone weighed the same she more or less sucked there too.
I have nothing against Danica personally and she has definitely succeeded in making far more money than a mediocre (at best) racecar driver has ever made but the bottom line is as a whole, she has failed miserably in the racing part of her career.

She has done a great job at promoting her brand and being the best female driver in Nascar and Indy even this being her last races.I would rank her in the bottom 50% of the male drivers but better than many and I would think her earnings put her in top 25% or higher.She is a role model to many young ladies and has done a good job of getting sponsers and being able to work with some top teams.

I checked the Indy/Nascar results from the last few years looking for Ryan Hunsinger, didn't find anything, imagine that.
But in the Hoseheads Keyboard Jockey series he is the man. Good work Mr. Hunsinger.

I don't like operas. It's a stuffy crowd dressed to the hilt and the high pitched singing really hurts my ears. Some of the singers got opportunities that I think other better singers should have got.
I don't post about it on Sprint Car forums because it's not relevant.

Lol reading and comprehension is clearly not your strong suit. What you’re saying is exactly the point I was making about Danica fanboys making a ridiculous comparison and saying I bet you couldnt do any better every time anyone points out the truth, which is that she has failed miserably as a racecar driver. It is usually followed by a personal insult or two. I’ve won several awards at my job the last few years but my job has nothing to do with professional racing.

There shouldn't even be a thread on this board about Danica or Daytona. Both of em suck. Danica is beat.
