I've got a new bet offer. 20:1 odds. Panica does not win any new aero package race ever.

I made the same point, only pithily.

Let me do some quick math here...

Kurt missed three races, but leads Danica by 146 points, with the crew that wasn't good enough for the Ice Queen last year.

So...

Crew - As good or better

Car - As good or better

Driver - Busch averages 36 points per race - Danica averages 22 points per race

I think we found the problem...

FWIW - her results since June 1 have netted her 7, 29, 20, 9 and 10 points for an average of 15 points per race.

As stated before, Tony is having a terrible year.

But Tony still has a chance to make the Chase, because he has the talent to win a race and is in the top 30 in points.

What is sad is - this is Danica's best and it's not much better than Tony's worst.

And I've got $10.00 that says by season's end, Tony will be ahead of Panica in the points. You game?

That's why her merchandise at Stewart Haas Racing has been on sale for 25% off for the past week - in the middle of the season.

Usually they wait until the fall for the fire sale's...

You can confidently raise the stakes of that bet.

LOL...

I kept the stakes low because I didn't think anyone would want to risk more than that on the racing "talents" of the Touring Princess...

Thanks to some well timed cautions, Danica finishes only 1 lap down in 24th place.

Still in 22nd place in the points, but places #23, 24, 25 and 26 all gained ground on the Touring Princess.

Saw this pair of anagrams in the comments section of a story about the Ice Queen whining about her crew chief's inability to set her car up properly for New Hampshire:

Does
Anyone
Notice
I
Crash
Alot

and in reference to her tirade against Jr. from the week before...

Does
Anyone
Notice

Cuss

Newsflash for all the Danica Apologists...

As much as it pains me to post this, it appears Stewart Hass Racing has secured a sponso... I mean sucker to pay for Danica's hobby in 2016:

Quote:
Danica Patrick press conference Tuesday UPDATE Nature's Bakery?:

Stewart-Haas Racing has scheduled a press conference regarding #10-Danica Patrick for Tuesday at 11:00am/et. Fox Sports' Tom Jensen tweeted, "Sources tell @NASCARONFOX she'll have a sponsor who is new to sport" and the "new sponsor could be for as many as 30 races, per sources."
.
The press conference will be live streamed on NASCAR.com.(8-17-2015)

UPDATE: hearing the sponsor could be Nature's Bakery: "on-the-go snacks and foods that complement health conscious living". Patrick teased the paint scheme on her Twitter.(8-17-2015)
I went to their website and quickly learned that their only outlets anywhere near where I live is at WalMart - which probably explains why I've never heard of or seen their products.



I'll stick with Fig Newton's...

Who better to push "fruit" snacks?

I figured the company would be on the left side of the country.

Too bad they couldn't find a "WHINERY" to sponsor her......................

Ripple, MD 20/20 and Boone's Farm were interested, but didn't have the budget...

Not that many more - and this is Tony's WORST year vs. the touring princess' BEST.

Tony still has a chance to make the Chase. Danica, not so much.

In the last 10 races, Tony has finished in front of the Danica 8 times. One of the times she "beat" him was when he had mechanical problems (after running up at the front) and finished last at the Glen.

Tony's season is headed up, while Danica's has been headed south...
