Conor's father works here at Swift, so I have to speak up for his talented young offspring.

Watched him race as well.
Like I said, I could easily name 10, but I figured what's the point.
There are some very good female kart drivers at the moment....Alessandra Madrigal (being coached by Mr. Wilson..former world champsion...not a bad teacher) and Cindie Alleman (who has a pretty good open wheel resume already).

So you've got two full seasons of two teams absolutely dominating (though between 4, sometimes 5 entries). And Danica is the one that's mediocre..........

Danica is great at car control!! We saw it right away with her at Rahals in Atlantic. Just doesnt push just over that line like one needs to do to be really fast. Easier said than done.

I didnt mention those guys, Ryan Dalziel as well, as they are common names to me. Jon test drove our latest Atlantic car for us and is incredible, as well as such a great guy, just like Alex Baron.

It's funny to me when women racers complain about the lack of opportunity.

(15 years old, first F2000 race, pole position, flag to flag).
If you hang around kids long enough, you begin to learn how to recognize talent and separate it from hype and marketing.
And BTW, Connor Daly took pole in Star Mazda.
But you're right, they're young and they haven't proven anything yet...

its ashame it all comes down to money and not talent. It sucks for the drivers and for the fans who do not get to see the real drivers.

I was at the St. Pete Indy qualifying yesterday and was sitting at the end of the long straight and Milka was off the gas so early and on the brakes it was comical compared to everyone else. She was so far off lap pace it was hilarious. Then around her 4th time by she tried to brake later like every one else and she spun out!!!!

1 thing Danica is consistent with is ignoring her fans and being a beotch! I was at the St. Pete IRL qualifying event yesterday and in the paddock their were more kids...get this... lots of 4-14 years old girls with Danica shirts, pictures and pen in hand....with their parents all waiting and waiting for Danica to emerge from the trailer. When she final did come out she quickly got on her scooter, refused autographs pushed her way out and motored away. I saw this happen not once but TWICE!
