One of the great miscalculations racing wise is Danica's move to NASCAR. Not financially; she'll rake in the dough big-time but professionally. Amazes me still that after being a competent but not standout drive in open wheel that somehow she'll turn into a female Jr. Johnson and smoke 41 other good old boys and one bad boy, Kyle Busch. Ain't gonna happen. If Dario Franchitti couldn't hack NASCAR with Ganassi backing, why would Danica. What she will discover was that racing wise she was bred for the Indy 500 and that is her true calling. But these are the peak years of her career and every year she misses Indy is a year she won't win it. Winning at Daytona. Her bank account and Go Daddy will.

Pack racing at Daytona is nothing like the tragedy at LVMS. Dan Wheldon hit a much slower car at a huge speed differential in an open wheel car-result was high speed flight and exposed driver contacting a fence post. Open wheel, flight, and exposed driver are the operative words. 2 of 3 are not present at Daytona.
