On a short track.

“All eyes will be on Danica this weekend,” said Jerry Gappens, executive vice president and general manager of New Hampshire Motor Speedway. “From her off-track persona to her on track performance, she’ll command the attention of fans and industry insiders alike. I hope she continues her recent streak of top ten finishes!”

"I'm nervous, because it's new and there's so much to learn about the way a race goes, how the race kind of plays out normally, and the yellow flags and the pit stops and how the car changes over a fuel run and how the tires change," Patrick said. "And there's just so much that I'm unfamiliar with. And so that makes me nervous, because I care and I want to do well. And I'm not going to know it all the first time I go there, but I hope to do a good job. So I know that people are watching and I want to put on a good show for the fans. I want to give them a reason to cheer for me."


"I'm eager to learn the Nationwide car," she said. "And I think that the best thing I can do for myself on the NASCAR weekends is really come up with some realistic expectation levels, instead of having them be like IndyCar expectation levels where I'm hoping to win and I'm hoping to finish on the podium, those kinds of things. Those are probably a little bit more unrealistic in Nationwide at this point for how much I still have to learn. So that's probably the best way that I can come away with momentum coming from Loudon, would be to set a realistic expectation level, and hopefully that happens."

She just needs to get out there and run the laps and learn the car, and, more importantly, the dynamics of cup. I think the only real difficult transition is realizing that unlike in open wheel where even touching another car can be fatal, she needs to bang up those fenders. She's an aggressive driver...she'll do well in stock cars and piss off a LOT of people before it's all said and done.

Yeah - I hope she knocks the Wallace boys down a few more notches - wait - they can't get any lower. The bubbas will squeal.

Except Joonyer is the one teaching her how to drive the tracks - that could slow down her learning.

Morgan Sheppard is an idiot.

She ran a good race for the most part and finished. Wreck wasn't her doing - old men should learn how to drive. Her lap times were right up there with the leaders.

But one thing this track showed, you get in back of the pack and you WILL be lapped. and lack of cautions don't give any wiggle room if you have problems.

12 cars on the lead lap at one point.

She'll be racing at Daytona this week, her second time around - that'll fill up the seats.

Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

Are you mad? It's because I never got you that diamond collar I promised, isn't it.
