    and i never said (or thought) she was really good/upper echelon. it just seemed she was as good much of the rest of the field.
    so it really bugged me when the waves of comments would come that she couldn't drive. and really just worse comments that had little to do with racing.
    especially when it was from the general public in the sports chats during the streams.

    your point about her whining is completely valid. i always noticed that.
    it's vague in my memory, but i'm pretty sure i really cringed once when she basically out and out blamed her crew for a poor result.

    even if that were the case, you don't air it out in public.

    I was under the impression her driving was not the main reason she was popular. I assumed it was 2 other reasons?

    Sure, Go Daddy and now Nature's Bakery, her (2) sponsors.. :whistle: And she looks really good in a racing suit. :thumbs:

    She is a capable driver, though agree her comments / deflecting responsibility post-race in the past hasn't helped her standing.. ( That seems to have toned-down, but I haven't actively followed racing in a few years. )

    Haven't really followed it since Feb of 2001. No one to cheer for anymore. I do think Danica is above average. :drool::D
