I am a huge fan of this new car. These past few years have been some of the best years Auto Racing has seen in a while. Well, at least NASCAR. I don't follow Indy/CART much anymore, though I used to be huge on it. Thought it was cool how a lot of long-time open wheel drivers have gone to NASCAR this year too. Carpentier, Franchitti, Almendinger. Some great drivers there.

Best car? What are you talking about? Winning with an inferior car makes it a better achievement doesn't it?

I'm not really taking anything away from her, hell she probably should have won a race or 2 last year. The only thing i'm saying is that if she would have went out and dominated by kicking all of their butts, she would have really made a statement. By watching alot of races, almost anyone can win a fuel mileage race. That's how Casey Mears got his first victory in Cup last year.

Why bring up a best car argument then? I don't really watch Indy but say if she was in F1 driving for Red Bull or something and then won a race without the Ferrari's and McLaren's dropping out dropping out I'd be very impressed she won a race. In fact, I'd be impressed if anyone did male or female.

lol women can't compete with men in figure skating. name one women to ever pull off a quad axel. Any sports involving any physical ability a woman can't compete. it's been proven time and time again. michelle wie couldn't annika sorenstam couldn't, hayley wickenheiser couldnt, the best wnba player couldn't make a NBDL team, and let's not even discuss american football. |

They sure compete together all the time though.
You are still completely dodging the question here, and the point being made. You said it is not a sport "If women can compete on an equal level". I'm just trying to be clear here.. cause if you're being a bigot about it then I really couldn't give two shits about your opinion on the subject. If not, then I'm just trying to understand your reasoning.. but that is what I have been asking repeatedly and you have still not directly answered that question. Are you afraid of being called a bigot or what? I mean, it's not a bigot to tell the truth in that women are not as physically able as men. But saying that something isn't a sport BECAUSE women can compete.. come on. Get off your high and mighty, fist pumping, chest thumping all-that-is-man horse here. |

I was a huge Dale Jarrett fan, until he switched to Toyota, fuck the Jap crap. But now with Marcos Ambrose over there I gotta follow my home boy. And I've been a fan since he was racing in the V8 Supercars in Oz.

Let's also not ignore that you are completely generalizing ALL racing into NASCAR. Which, while I do enjoy it yes, it is not the only type of auto racing. Hell, it isn't even the only type being discussed here. Danica Patrick doesn't race NASCAR. She races Indy, which is primarily road courses. This is an argument you will simply not win. I don't give two fucks if you like the sport. But it -is- a sport. It takes years of practice to do what these people do, and that is no different for a woman. There's a reason I said I don't think she will ever be a champion. Because I don't think she will ever be that good. But yeah she will be a competitor for years to come probably. Like was said earlier by someone else.. let's toss you in a championship car on a champion team and see if you can take the gold. Fuck it, let's give you a month of driving school even to see if you can pick it up. Guarantee you would either wreck or finish in the last half of the field. I don't even know why, but you have made me so angry with your stupid generalizations. I don't even own one bit of racing memorabilia, and I only watch a race once every week or two. But fuck, when people start spouting off shit about something they don't know ANYTHING about, it pisses me off. Even arguing with Kris P or Kane Knight has never made me this aggravated. Not every sport in existence has to fit your stupid metro-sexual standards in order to be considered a sport. |

just because i can't do something doesn't mean it's a sport. i can't do math worth shit, does that make it a sport?
If it were a sport a woman couldn't compete with a man. Auto racing has always been a semi sport in my book and many other peoples book, but when a female can compete with a man, it makes it even less. IT's not bigoted, it's just stating the truth. |

And just because someone can't do something as well as others, that doesn't mean it -isn't- a sport you stupid guido.
Oh wait, I get it now. You feel threatened as a man when a woman can do something as good as men.
