ri702bill 11,731 #2 Posted 3 hours ago (edited) She was a good Indycar driver, but left a lot to be desired as a NASCAR driver. Way too whiny & pouty. Indy cars are weighed with the driver onboard - all fairly equal. NASCAR cars are not - 3800 pounds without the driver. There were many protests claiming that having 100 lb Danica drive was an unfair advantage compared to the good ol' boys that weighed twice as much!! She need more advantage than that!!
