If Danica Patrick looked like Nicole Bass would she be driving in the IRL?

No chance. No chance at all.

She lacks car control. For the second time this season she lost control of her race car and nearly killed crew members on pit road.

She panics like a woman that seen a rat run under her chair. Yesterday she lost control, paniced and held the throttle instead of the break slamming into Dixons crew.

Simply, If she looked like Nicole Bass she would not longer be a Driver in the IRL, disagree??? Throwdown.


Point 1. If for no other reason than you would become her BIGGEST fan if she looked like Bass- I mean her merchandise would DOUBLE just on you alone!

Point 2. If she DID lose control- she could simply pick up her car and RUN to the finish line!


Look, if you dont want to take my TD seriously then dont take it. (jk)

1. I couldnt help with merchandising being that I am poor. I pay for $4 gas on a credit card that is likely to be cancelled next week. I plan to go on welfare and live out my life in peace at the trailer park.

2. She could carry the car but not a 200+ MPH. Wouldnt help at all.


Danica is Pretty True- and that might help in the SHORT term - but racing takes a TON of cash- and NO owner is going to keeps tossing out 6 figures per race if a driver cannot win.

How much money do you think they spend? 4 Figures per tire, at least 100 bucks on oil and with gas at 5 bucks a gallon you have to think that those cars don;t run on Bio-grease!

It Cost between 7 and 8 MILLION per YEAR to run on the IRL Circuit and next year it will go up an estimated 13% with the Merger

No matter how cute she looks stamping her feet on the track - NO owner is going to flush that kind of cash down the drain on Anna K the Race car driver.


One problem, its all about marketing not finishing, what funds it? Sponsors/viewers.


Right- and How long did Anna keep her sponsors after a few years- Anna was BY FAR the hottest Tennis player out there ( I know you like Nadal but still)

and she kept going home round 1 or round 2- so the sponsors took to other ladies who might not be on STUFF magazine- but they had a better chance of since thier gear in the Finals- then you have ladies such as Venus or Davenport that can do BOTH.

frank nailed this one, in fact if she looked like martina navatranoviscotia, she wouldn't, or any of the wnba players,

Or just eat the car, walk onto the track, smash the competition, and use her fire-breath to burn down the stadium.

she would lose control more due to the massive amounts of horse roids running through her already swollen veins

If Danika looked like Nicole Bass she would never crash. Of course, she wouldn't fit into the car, either, so that's kind of a hollow victory.
