Default Danica might move to NASCAR



JOLIET, Ill. - Danica Patrick could be leaving the Indy Racing League and joining the NASCAR circuit by 2007, if her father has his way, the Orlando Sentinel reported Monday.

"I'm trying to get her here [into NASCAR]," said T.J. Patrick, who has been Patrick's manager since childhood.

Her father told the Sentinel he was having exploratory talks with some NASCAR teams at Chicagoland Speedway on Sunday.

"We've had some inquiries," T.J. Patrick told the Sentinel. He and his wife Bev Patrick attended NASCAR's USG Sheetrock 400 on Sunday.

Patrick's parents were in the Nextel Cup garage area Sunday as guests of Roush Racing, the Sentinel said. The Roush team includes drivers Mark Martin, Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle and Jamie McMurray.

Danica Patrick's contract with Rahal-Letterman Racing team ends after this season. The Sentinel said the Patricks are negotiating with other IRL teams as well as NASCAR teams.

Patrick finished fourth in the Indianapolis 500 last year.

Too bad because even though I'm not an Indy fan I like it more than NASCAR for sure. But NASCAR is were all the money is...

that's kinda sad that drivers are lowering themselves because "thats where all the money is". I won't deny it, I considered watching NASCAR when I heard JPM was moving. I still think danica would look hotter in an indy car than a NASCAR.

Why gp2, I thinck she could have been able to get a place as a test driver for the honda f1 team. Well, I think she is a very good driver and I would like to see her win the Indy 500 once.

As if the NASCAR boys will take her..

Her father will try everything he can to get her in though..


She has the worst little league father in the industry.. Apparently he used to lay out on the karting track (litterally) just to get a red flag for her..

I second that. I am getting so tired of hearing about her just cause she is a woman, she still isnt that great a driver. You want to talk about a good female driver, talk about Michele Mouton.

I just saw on sportscenter that she signed with Andretti/Green. Looks like no NASCAR for her yet.
