Danica Patrick Best NASCAR Nationwide Finish, New Hot Wheels Car, and More Races

     Danica Patrick finished a Nationwide career best 21st at Charlotte last Friday night. This weekend, while NASCAR’s Sprint Cup drivers will be racing at Martinsville, Danica and the other NASCAR Nationwide Series folks will be at Gateway International Raceway near St. Louis competing in the Five Hour Energy Drink 250.

     In addition to finishing out this year’s Nationwide races, Danica has committed to starting the first four NASCAR Nationwide Series races in 2011. The ten consecutive race run for her should provide great experience, and I anticipate a top ten finish (perhaps more than one) before it is over. Despite much of the criticism aimed at Danica, anyone who objectively follows her will have to admit that she has talent and a good work ethic.


     Finally, for you kids and other Hot Wheels fans, Danica, the rest of her crew and sponsors have put together a special GoDaddy No. 7 Hot Wheels paint scheme for the final Nationwide race this year at Homestead-Miami Speedway on November 20, 2010. JR Motorsports, GoDaddy, and Hot Wheels announced this week that Danica will race a flashy black No. 7 car with green flames at Homestead. A scale Hot Wheels version of the car will be available at Homestead and in retail stores on November 20th. To see more photographs of Danica Patrick visit http://www.bestdigitalshots.com/
