Re: Go Danica!
Petty: Racing not a sport for women
May 26, 2006
A woman's place is -- well, Richard Petty didn't go so far as to say it's not behind the wheel, but he doesn't think it's first over the finish line, either.
"I just don't think it's a sport for women," Petty, 68, told the Associated Press. "And so far, it's proved out. It's really not. It's good for them to come in. It gives us a lot of publicity, it gives them publicity.
"But as far as being a real true racer, making a living out of it, it's kind of tough."
This isn't new. In her recent book, "Janet Guthrie: A Life at Full Throttle," the first woman to drive in the Coca-Cola 600 recalled the reception she got in 1976 (then the World 600).
"When I shook hands with Richard Petty I thought I'd get frostbite," Guthrie wrote. "Later, he would be quoted as saying of me: 'She's no lady. If she was she'd be at home. There's a lot of differences in being a lady and being a woman.' "
Petty has come to appreciate her efforts, and even though NASCAR would dearly love a Danica Patrick of his own, he's sticking to his guns.
"His position is not going to change because that is who he is, that is part of who he is," said his son, Kyle Petty. "That's how he was raised, when he was raised, the era he was raised in."

Re: Go Danica!
Racing not a sport for women? Why not? How about racing isn't a sport at all. I mean give me a break how hard is it to drive around in circles. Yes I've done ride-a-longs at the Las Vegas Motor speedway. Not impressed. I'm happy that people are having fun doing something they seam to like doing and I suppose it's making some very rich, but a sport..Not in my opinion. If it were not for the crashes and the possibility of death most Nascar fans would never show up. What's that saying about our society.
ok let the flaming begin

Re: Go Danica!
Men are pigs sometimes, that's okay. Too bad Danica couldn't rub her pretty talented ass in his face yesterday. Next time.
But yesterday's finish was sweet! no?

Would have been sweeter for me if it would have ended about 3 seconds sooner.

Re: Go Danica!
I've been a racing fan for more than 40 years (Formula 1 and Indy cars) and I think what offends some about Ms. Patrick is that she is being used to pander. She is a good driver. She has never won a race. There are very much better drivers (male and female) who get no attention at all, and therefore, earn much less money than she. There are better female drivers who aren't as attractive and are ignored.
Thus far, Ms. Patrick is just a marketing event. The photo sitting on the rear bumper of the '57 Chevy confirms that. If she ever wins a race, she may become something else.
I apologize if I have offended some, but that's how I see it.
Congratulations to Roger Penske whose very clever fueling of his driver's car during a pit lane penalty (something that isn't allowed in Formula 1) enabled Sam Hornish to win the race.
George SSSS
