OMG, a race car driver trash talking another driver after they wrecked? I'm shocked! :eek:

I suppose because she's female she should just be demure, bat her eyelashes and make like the world is sweet. Or, on the other end of the spectrum, she could have reached through the guy's window and punched him, a la Greg Biffle.

Yea, that would spice up the sport a bit. The 1st female to KO a male Nascar driver.

I saw the on-track part of this incident and it was caused by Duno going VERY slow during practice and blocking the racing line. Danica almost creamed her while trying to get in a good run. I'da been pretty pissed off too.

Duno is known to most drivers for being very inconsiderate when being lapped. Paul Tracy openly calls her "The Rolling Road Block", but that doesn't get mentioned much because he's a man.

You see, I don't know anything about the sport. Had no idea that there were racing lanes, in which you are supposed to let people pass, and lollygagging lanes. Guess practice is different. Thought the object was to try to block others from passing you. My bad. My misterpretation of the confrontation left a bitter taste in my mouth for her since. That has changed.

Or, on the other end of the spectrum, she could have reached through the guy's window and punched him, a la Greg Biffle.

Yes. In practice, the object is to get a feel for your car under race conditions so you can tell your crew chief what to change on the car to make it better for the actual race.

In the above incident, Milka Duno was going slower than she was capable of going for no apparent reason. She has a right to do this as long as she does it safely, usually to one side of the track in order to let other drivers pass so they can have an uninterrupted practice run and get a correct feel for their cars. On this day, she actually blocked several drivers but Danica caught her in a corner an almost nailed her when Duno putt-putted in the racing line on a road course. A big no-no for anybody.

Once again, Danica crashes & disses other driver. She said (sarcastically), "I guess I should've seen all the tape on the left rear bumper". Like that would've stopped you :rolleyes:

Then she admits that she didn't know all the rules about passing on the bottom left side, WTF?! Well Danica, you shouldn't be driving almost 200mph if you don't know all the rules of the sport. WOW! Kinda sick.

Check it out>>>http://msn.foxsports.com/nascar/story/BB-Danica-Patrick-Las-Vegas-race-blog

Haters will be haters, but please present all the facts.

From the story in that link:

I agree that Danica has much to learn about stock car racing and should be running in ARCA or Late Models like how Ricky Carmichael started. But according to your link, this accident wasn't her fault.

I just got home and haven't seen it yet. But I've got it DVR'd, so I'll check it out after Supercross.

Hmmmm :confused:

Please tell me where I said "it was her fault".

Just because I didn't present "all" the facts, doesn't mean that it's her fault.

EDIT: Oh, & JFTR, I like Danica.
Hmmm. Please tell me where I said you said it was her fault. We can go on like this forever.

Point is: You started this thread to diss Danica with "crashes (AGAIN)" and your entire first post. Then you say you like Danica? I'm confused.

Don't start threads like this if you can't handle anyone disagreeing with you. Trust me, I've learned the hard way. No matter how much we think everyone feels the same as we do about something, there always seems to be someone else in this world (or forum) who will disagree. Cheers.

Ok, maybe you didn't say it in writing, but you were thinking it I'm sure. By putting "haters will be haters" kinda helped that a bit. LOL @ that too because I'm the furthest from a hater, if you knew me, you would've never wrote that.

Hmmmm, so you admit you are "disagreeing" w/ me. If you are "disagreeing" w/ me then you obviously do think that I think or said it was her fault. "Disagreeing" about what?

And yes, I do like Danica, always have. But she's a bad Nascar driver & should be in the lower fields of racing right now.

dude your right after the interview with dannica they interviewed the other guy and he said it was his falt, that he wasnt going fast enough and slid down the track just in front of her, lets not forget that dannica is in nascar for pablicity and promoting the sport from the looks of the fans around her interviews its working:icon_monk
