Same as you and I. You don't have to have an Indy Car win to see that she sucks. And I don't get why she is such a big catch for nascar. (Spelled that lowercase on purpose. That's the disrespect I have for that series and it's management.) Anyway, she's no good. She's not even close to being hott. Her personality sucks. And girls don't even watch nascar. So I never understood how she is so "marketable" But something is obviously working cause she's still around.  



I do not understand how none of you  never watch NASCAR anymore but after every race  you tell us how bad NASCAR racing is.  You must have watched it so I guess you lie.  If you do not watch NASCAR how do you know what Danica does?  She beat 21 other drivers today and also her boss Tony, but you are right  she did not win, but you would not  know this cause you never watch the races.  I do not under stand why some of you hate Danica so nuch.  What did she ever do to you.  She may or may not ever win a NASCAR race, but there are alot of drivers who will never win a race.  My advice to you people is to find something worth while in life and if you do not like NASCAR do not watch it or commet on it.

I watched part of the race and Kyle L. was dominant until the last restart .It did seem odd that all 4 chasers were near the front and all had a chance and it was the same in the Infinity series.Danica is better than 1/2 of the field and there are many drivers that are field fillers. It did make good watching and becoming a 7 time Champion to join Dale Sr. and Richard the other King Petty added to it.The money is in Nascar and good or bad TV seems to follow their every practice to the the race.Too bad they  dont give open wheel  dirt cars more coverage.Motocross,Indy and Formula 1,many types of sports cars,seem to get it.I thought MAV-TV was great .

Still a NASCAR fan.  No issue with the chase or points format.  I think its exciting.  Only the best make it.

 

What I do have a problem with is NASCAR throwing an unnecessary caution with 15 to go for a car with a small tire rub that didn't spin, didn't hit the wall, and was slowing but easily going to make it to the pits with no issues and leaving no debris on the track.

 

For all the talk about drivers not doing anything to artificially effect the results of the race, NASCAR's eagerness to throw a caution every time the can changes the outcome of many races and in this case their champion.  

 

Sure it made for an exciting crash and drama, but I'm sure today Carl Edwards feels NASCAR stole a championship away.

Edwards doesn't need to feel like Nascar stole one away.  Kevin Harvick was the one that got screwed.  With a normal points system, Harvick would have won it by 26 pts. and Edwards would have finished 8th---one spot behind the "champion" Jimmie.   (BTW--I think Harvick is a tool--but he had a much better season than Jimmie or Carl)  

Didn't turn it on.  Watched the ESPN highlights.  I was much more interested in who won the race than who won the bull$hit championship.  Looked like the race was actually pretty entertaining.  Too bad it was tainted by a stupid back story.

The reason I can't get into Nascar is exactly what happened on Sunday.  I started reading stuff on twitter about the race and flipped it on.  Larson was leading the race and the championship contenders were running I think 2nd, 3rd, and 8th (something like that, however many there were?)  but after 20 laps of having it on...and a caution with pit stops, I still hadn't seen Larson.  How do you not show the leader?  There is too much hype around that chase bullshit.


do it in the dirt

Ok friends.  Lets talk about something constructive like Saldana running the exact same stuff just with a different car number next year, new clay at tracks that still wont water properly and Schatz's new engine builder rumor.


Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3 
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Danica is not better than 1/2 of the field.
