He hasn't been behind the wheel since 1992, but there still is only one King of NASCAR, and when Richard Petty speaks, the words carry some weight.
On the subject of Danica Patrick's chances of winning in her second full season behind the wheel of a Sprint Cup car, Petty is quite clear.

Found the link you posted and you are correct. I apologize.
Interesting to see Richard Childress on there. Scroll up for the current driver list...
Still not a Nascar fan, but google still easy to use
Winston cup was the top in ‘92 right ?
The Ac Delco 500 was a Winston Cup race ?
K.Petty .. won.
Accepted.
:)
sorry last snarky reply as before I saw yours.
Rubbin’ is racin’...
I apologized, what else would you like me to do?
LOL. It’s true of every racer that has ever been on the track.
No problem. Thanks for straightening me out, along with the others who also did.
Alas, that is true.....so what do we do with the drivers who finish behind her?
I don’t care if she never wins. I don’t watch NASCAR. I watch Danica.
I have not really kept up with stock car racing since Chrysler introduced the 426 Hemi.
I know they are never going to be really stock but I wish they would go back to mostly stock cars instead of what passes for them now. I know they look like regular cars but have nothing in common with real cars that we buy.
Not in the top series.
**********
What are you calling the top series?
Kyle won 8 times in the Sprint Nascar Series.

Disregard my post. I see you found a link. Take care.
Kenny Wallace is my favorite non winning driver.
If it were up to me I would fix the American version of Top Gear by swapping out Rutlidge and the comedian and putting Wallace and Leno in to replace them.
My mistake at my original source was stopping at “Best Finish” 5th without reading on to see that meant in a season series. My error.
Keep her. She's better than at least 16 other drivers.
