Patrick's IRL win have a ripple effect in NASCAR?


Danica Patrick was on 20 when the first woman to win an IndyCar Series event operation from long-time Indy star Helio Castroneves Bridgestone Indy Japan 300 take. Patrick was a great series, becoming the first woman to win that on an oval track or on a closed course. That the milestone in an off-week came to win third consecutive Busch, Kyle for the Sprint Cup series to do so, in the PR Department have contributed, but Patrick's historic victory on the, Twin Ring Motegi would no NASCAR news on the rear side pushed - as it did that in the nationwide series L2 weekend.

Patrick, 26, has to Dale Earnhardt, Jr. (lately) been compared as the most popular and marketable driver appears in their craft, with little in the profit column. Unfair or not, Junior's 70-race winless followed up the load on his shoulders dainty Danica drove on the IndyCar version of circle's winner.

The speech is now, centered, not when Patrick with NASCAR will sign as other open wheels have done in recent years. Two of the last three Indianapolis are condensed now 500 winner and IndyCar Champs Sprint cuppers, and some look at the IRL competition as a factor in their first victory. Regardless of drivers such as Clint Bowyer said that a competitive woman in the ranks is inevitable, if the right offer comes. Bring fame and spotlight Patrick would, in particular with an IndyCar victory in her resume, would be huge for NASCAR. Coverage of their product names would be sponsors of the prospect of drool or business logo on the hood of a car driven by Patrick in the most popular Motorsport in the nation.

Patrick Indy 500 this month should cover their entry into NASCAR, it could clinch, even though their beloved private time would be cut. Moved the five open wheelers, NASCAR over the last two years, have had a hard time, the adjustment to the narrower, harder tyres and heavy car, where are a common tactic. Patrick, a petite 5'2 "and first had discussions with Roush Fenway Racing would have materialized a hard time feathery £ 100, officials and rumors of their filling of Richard Childress fourth car 2009 appeared."

NASCARS Coca-Cola 600 will be held on the same day as the Indianapolis 500, on the 25th May during Memorial Day weekend. Earnhardt, Jr. WINS between now and then, the media focus more on Patrick's chances in the IRL-mega-event. Discussions are already under way, combine double game on the same route and at different times in the future seasons, an occasional NASCAR and IndyCar. Also, race, taking into account a circuit on which is followed by an afternoon event with the other presentation a possible Saturday. Lowe's Motor Speedway President and general manager H.A. "Humpy" Wheeler sees the latter as more than the first feasible.

Patrick ultimately go, would be to compete top series she the first woman in NASCARS. Janet Guthrie took but never won in the 1970s in a stock car. Guthrie finished 12 runs in the 1976 Daytona 500, among other respectable, and at least 20 females have tried their hand on the NASCAR over the years although no close to have come to the victory.

Women who have tried their hand include Sarah Fisher, Erin Crocker, Shawna Robinson, Kelly Sutton, Deborah Renshaw, Tammy Jo Kirk and Tina Gordon. None was always full time in one of the three touring car series of the sport. The first women in NASCAR were Louise Smith called "the first lady in racing"- and Sara Christian in 1949, followed by Ethel Mobley and Patty Moise. Smith won 38 times at the lower levels of NASCAR and 1999 into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame was inducted. After Ray Evernham marriage, said Crocker, break up the most promising little to improve her career, claiming that nothing does NASCAR to help the current crop has her and other women, hoping to compete on the way done.

Three more young women have entered NASCARS soon expected drive for diversity program in a late model series with no upward motion. But the cast was.

The effect of Chrysler bankruptcy on NASCAR


With the global economic crisis in full swing, we start to see, some fairly large players start to fall.  It's no surprise that the American automotive industry has faced difficult times. It was only a question of when the...Uuhm...Mud would hit the fan.  Now it has in the automotive industry in spades.  We see now in Chapter 11 bankruptcy with GM almost certainly soon follow Chrysler.  Have so what impact this provided on the NASCAR circuit, which is dominated by car, by the big three?

Dodge/Chrysler is currently seven NASCAR teams, in particular with Kyle Bush drive a Dodge.  While not much an Executive's Dodge could, Kyle would have the light at the end of the tunnel, Dodge was looking down.  To understand the impact, which could have these bankruptcies, we must consider a few factors. First of all, what's under the hood, and secondly, what exactly means it bankruptcy enter?

These guys drive can the cars that have the Chrysler, Dodge, GM and Ford label on it, but these cars do not come from the Assembly line yesterday.  For the most part, they are similar to an assembly line vehicle on the outside, but this is for the most part, where the similarity ends.  These cars then the concept of market to the extreme.  Are slimmed-down by experienced mechanics and pretty good in a new car completely for high speed maximum security guarantee built rebuilt.  Of the suspension, engines to sit and steering wheel that dad is, Chevrolet as it were not.  Even the tires are made exclusively for NASCAR.  So even if one or all of the big three disappeared tomorrow, as long as someone can make available and aerodynamic shell, must be to drive a car.  Toyota now has such a great fighter in NASCAR for many years.

Next, we look at the bankruptcy process itself.  Without too technical in the United States of the bankruptcy, Chapter 11 as one is there six kind of the most common and the type of the Chrysler for stored.  In Chapter 11, the debtor retains title.  This type of bankruptcy protects the owner of creditors and makes it possible for time, a plan, acceptable to creditors, to continue on with normal operation, as soon as they come out of bankruptcy protection to develop.

The reality is that it is likely go, go little impact on the NASCAR of one of the big three automakers into bankruptcy. In Chapter Eleven, outweigh the exposure that it receives by far with NASCAR associated is the cost of capital.  The relationship is a net gain for automakers, so not something that they don't go this to easily let go of.  One of the three should disappear completely, there are many other options for NASCAR teams. There's just something patriotic and not American about dominated the field in the race it's hard?  No one is going to be, that go away.
