Katherine Legge could run circles around her if you put them in the same car. Danica's hype and media, no more.
I dont think she is any better than danica. heck, danica ran the prototypes in grand am in an enduro.. her time was in the high averages. nothing amazying... i would suspect she wouldnt be anything special in a sports car at a track near you vs the top club drivers.

I think she has proven to be a good driver.. the best... no , but there are a lot of good drivers out there, both club and pro. lots of top club guys have been out against seasoned pros and hung and even beat them. lots of excuses as to why, but what i always say, is there are a lot of good drivers out there.. the differences are really in the decision making in my opinion.

I tend to lean towards this opinion. Jon Fogarty is a 2 time Atlantic Champion, raced in the same period as DP, and will never generate the same level of interest. Can't be down to talent.
