I agree with you about that. I have been a fan for years and when people ask me why I love racing ,when they just don't get it, I tell them to find a driver they feel they can relate to and they will get racing.
So be it.
If it took someone like Danica to get the people there - fine with me. Like I keep saying- She isn't just another pretty face-at least she can race!
I used to have season tickets to Texas Motor Speedway, but I decided it's just too long to drive and to short to fly to get there, so I dropped them.
If I lived in that area, though, I'd definitely attend to watch Danica and root for her. She's the best thing that's happened in the IRL for a long time.
