She pulled off a awesome win at Long beach. That girl drove the freakin wheels off that machine. She currently second in the series. Screw oval racing. Road racing takes more skill IMO.

She is really impressive. I'd never heard of her before Long Beach, but she seems like the real deal. That was her first Atlantic race ever, wasn't it? She's already done more than Danica did at that level. Danica never won in Barber or Atlantics.
But, Legge isn't as hot as Danica so she might have to earn her rides the old fashioned way. Hopefully she'll stay in the Champ Car system instead of getting bought up by an IRL team.
Speaking of the IRL, they have to be loving this publicity. That was the first Indy 500 that people really watched since the split, I think. They are definitely getting their mileage out of Danica, but it could all go very wrong for them if she gets hurt. Two drivers left the Speedway with broken backs yesterday and Buddy Rice got messed up good. If they break Danica's back, all that publicity will turn bad bad bad.
And that Foyt kid is out to get her... he's out to get them all!
