[6 Shooter]

​

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- SpeedWeeks 2010 officially began at Daytona International Speedway on Thursday, including practice for Saturday's Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200. But this isn't your father's ARCA race, not with IndyCar regular Danica Patrick making her stock car debut here. With her in the field, it'll be the most anticipated, most watched ARCA Series race in history. Here then are five things we learned on her first day in Daytona.

No"D", she's my absolute favorite race driver because she came up through the dirt track ranks and earned her spot in the big time! Oh no I must be thinking of someone else. Danica has a great body!

What impresses me is that her husband is almost as old as I am.

I guess that you'd expect the car to run faster with her driving in her underwear!

There's a hugh age difference in being 66 and being born in 1966!:L

 

[6 Shooter]

Hey it's only 22 Years!

2010 - 1944 = 66
2010 - 1966 = 44

1953 Vette > 1975 Vette
1988 Vette < 2010 Vette​

Danica qualified 12th for tomorrows ARCA race. Here's a picture just after she exited the car! "We should have cranked a little more right rear and tow in and the car would've gone through the corners better!" stated Danica.
