Kyle leading just got done for speeding in pit lane... Danica a lap down in 27th...

No car of tomorrrow?

DanicaFan · 10 Jul 2010, 02:40 (Ref:2724273)

Congrats to Kyle Busch for the win. Danica ran a great race, if hadnt had been for bad luck with the first pit stop and the tire there late, she had a top 15 car.

I still think that yellow flag before Trevor Bayne's yellow was a BS Yellow that cost Joey Logano the race.

Shockingly quick.

MJ_N_09 · 10 Jul 2010, 20:44 (Ref:2724553)

25th after tire issues. I think this is where she should be by now. I especially can't complain after seeing Jennifer Jo Cobb's performances this year.....just abysmal.

PabloTeK · 11 Jul 2010, 16:54 (Ref:2724989)

Speaking of ex OW rookies what's happened to Piquet? Last thing I heard of him he was ramming Danica up against the wall...

I need a less childish mind.
