Talking GO Danica!!

Danica Patrick wins pole for Nationwide race at Daytona - ESPN

Quote:
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Danica Patrick won the pole Friday for the season-opening Nationwide Series race at Daytona.

Patrick became the first woman to secure the top qualifying spot in NASCAR's second-tier series since Shawna Robinson at Atlanta on March 12, 1994.

The former IndyCar star turned a fast lap of 49.250 seconds around the high-banked speedway, averaging 182.741 mph.

"I'm just happy I could turn the wheel, push the pedal down and start on the pole. It's great to be in this position," Patrick said.

Trevor Bayne qualified second, followed by Elliott Sadler, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Austin Dillon.

Patrick is entering her first full-time season in the Nationwide Series, driving for JR Motorsports and team owner Earnhardt. She also is making her Sprint Cup debut Sunday in the Daytona 500.

Former open-wheel driver Sam Hornish Jr. qualified sixth, just ahead of defending Sprint Cup champion Tony Stewart.

Information from The Associated Press was included in this report.

Re: GO Danica!!

I liked how she put her hands up to keep from hurting her wrists. That's a pretty heads-up moved to make when you're about to smack a wall going 100+ MPH and have about 1 second to think about it.

Definately...

But she's an attractive woman in a man's sport with some skill. You could see the hype machine coming a mile away.
