Milwaukee - America's Drunkest Evo Owners
Feb 16, 2009, 08:11 AM
I heard about that. It'll be a good business move for the the team, getting them lots of attention and marketing $$. Whether it is a move that will win races, who knows. I don't really follow the IRL but have heard everything from "she really is a legitimate driver with tons of unrealized potential" to "she's a terrible driver* and only in the car because she has *****".
*a terrible driver in the IRL is still an exceptional driver in the grand scheme of things.

I agree Moss. I haven't followed enough to judge her driving, I have however heard more good than bad about her. Either way it will be nice to see America in F1 once again, hopefully finishing more races than Scott Speed

Getting such a high profile, and American, driver to drive for them will do a lot to get funding that a new team wouldn't normally get, and also do a lot for the series in it's most underachieving market.
There is no denying that Danica Patrick is the David Beckham/Tony Romo/Shaq (current) of motor racing. Not the best in their sport, but one of the most marketable.

Also, she's horrible on road courses... always crashes out. She's decent on ovals. Tell me how many ovals you run in F1?
Hard to say about Scott Speed... he was inconsistent at best. Although his car wasn't perfect either.

I really hate to be on Apple's side but I would seriously kick HTC right in the ***** if I saw this today and owned their phone.

It's an announcement for the Touch Pro2...yeah, the 1 came out in October. It's a combination of the Touch Pro, Tilt, and HD. It'll be out in Europe Q2 of this year. That will almost top Apple's price drop on the first iPhone.

Yeah, true. I would be pissed since I would have ended up buying both outright. There will always be a new model but so soon is a little suprising. Everyone is going the way of Apple
