Kermit'la Patrick next week will Formally announce her intent to move to NASCAR NationWide full-time in 2012,....
Kermit'la, also plans to enter select Cup races next season
My guess is First CUP race will be " The Daytona 500 "
... in cars prepared by Stewart-Haas Racing, / really Rick Hendrick) with the intent to move to CUP .. Full-time in a multi-year deal with Stewart-Haas in 2013, ...
Also remember the Hendrick decal on the Penske Indy cars .....
Got to wonder if Kermit'la is going to be at the INDY 500 in a Penske-Chevrolet, sponsor by GoDaddy ...

She should do O.K. in Nationwide. Cup will be another story. If she gets beside Montoya, she might get a quick lesson.

That would be a way to get up to 4 cars in 2013.
Tony's Past Champs provisional going to the #7 Go Daddy car in 2012, with Danica driving select races, with Mark covering the rest most likely will finish in the top 35 with Mark driving the majority of the races.
Then in 2013 the provisional going to SH-car-4 with Mark as full time driver.

Do you really think that enough sponsors are hanging around to fund all these cars for Stewart.

Not sure what they will do for Mark but Kermit'la i'm sure has Go Daddy in her pocket for a while.

Question is .... Will she now race in the "Prelude to the Dream"??
.. Tony's big event at Eldora in June ...
.... that would raise a lot of money for Charity, with the Pay per View ...

Does she have dirt experience? Not saying that would be necessary, but I would think that would help sweeten the deal on her end. A whole getting back to your roots kind of thing.

If she commits to NW, learns her craft, both driving and business then I'm OK with it. She'll be on a good team with top notch equipment.
And if she's still not finishing better than mid pack, then I'll block out the hype and hope they talk about the other drivers that have been working their way op the ladder from their local tracks...
