Danica Nascar update

[sandysixtysfan]

FYI- today's local newspaper is reporting DP and JR Motorsports have reached a deal that will have her driving a limited number of Nationwide races. GoDaddy.com will be the sponsor. An official announcement is expected later today.

Makes sense - it seems like this is where they have been headed the whole time. It is a top tier Nationwide program so we will see how she adapts! It will be interesting to watch.

You know... IIRC there was a time (few years ago) That the Nascar rule book said nothing about wearing a fire suit.

I can wait to see Danica play bumper cars with some good ole boys!!!!

I guess there is some entertainment value in it all. It's a shame when american racing has come to this.....

Looks like the stock car guys want "Milk and Doughnuts", too, I guess This blurb is from www.Jayski.com

Duno to test ARCA car for Braun Racing: [Indy car driver] Milka Duno will make her stock car debut during the ARCA Racing Series presented by RE/MAX and Menards open test at Daytona International Speedway December 18, 19 and 20, 2009. Milka will participate in the test behind the wheel of Braun Racing's #90 Toyota. While no stranger to the Daytona Beach, FL-based track, this will be Milka's first opportunity to go around the 2.5-mile tri-oval in a metal-skinned stock car. Her #90 Camry will have less downforce than either the IndyCar Series cars she's driven the past three seasons, or the Rolex Series Daytona Prototypes that she competed in for the three seasons before that. With a second-place finish in 2007, Milka holds the record for the highest finish ever by a female driver in the 45-year history of the 24 Hours of Daytona at Daytona International Speedway. Starting with her four-win season in the American Le Mans Series in 2001 and continuing through her thee-win Rolex Series years, Milka has been offered opportunities to compete in stock cars and in the NASCAR Series virtually every season since.(Braun Racing PR)(12-12-2009)
