    Danica Patrick Andretti

    Well, Not quite, but she is joining Andretti Green Racing for 2007. With their cars she actually could win some races. Rahal's cars just aren't in the running.

      After watching her showing in her rookie 500, the boys might be ub trouble when she gets a good ride under her.

          Understand she's also thinking of migrating to NASCAR. That would be interesting after some experience with Andretti.

              Considering some of the photo spreads she has done, if she goes to NASCAR maybe she will show up in Playboy!

                  Great move for her going to the Andretti team. I would like to see her move on to NASCAR. Correct me if I am wrong but I don't recall a woman ever running in NASCAR.

                      From the sound of the article I saw, She isn't moving to NASCAR until she accomplishes what she wants in IRL. Winning the Indy 500.

                      If I were her, I'd get bored in NASCAR real quick. Nothing but oval tracks. Of course the racing I did back in College was Rally style.

                          There have been and are a few in the Bush and Truck Series but none in Cup at the moment. I think another reason she left Rahal is Bobby is supporting his son who is going to Europe next and probably will not be as involved in his Indy car team, which may suffer. They changed chassis in mid season and still have not got a handle on it. I also heard there might be some sponsor issues. Lets see how Montoya adjusts. Pesonally I don't not think Danica is strong enough to handle a bigger heavier (by 1400#) car evern with power steering. That and the longer season did not appeal to her.

                              I agree that her short-term goal is winning Indy. That's a pretty fair bet if she gets decent equipment.

                              Actually, between the Busch and Nextel Cup series, NASCAR schedules races at three road courses: Sears Point, Watkins Glen, and Mexico City.
