    Yes, I will watch the race like I've done every since I can remember. I don't follow the IndyCar Series like I did 30 years ago.

      Proficiency in IRL, but only 1 win, does not bode well for a step up to the big league. Montoya is twice the driver and he's struggling.

        At Watkins Glen, in the 80's, they didn't race "stock cars" because they were considered the bottom feeders of motor racing. Still are.

          Absolutely! She'd bring in a strong female fan base and be perennial "filly amongst the colts"! Great for Danica, Superb for NASCAR

            she is 100% capable....I think this would be great for the sport!!

              I'd love to see her in NASCAR. IMO this series has grown stale, with the Hendrix cars winning 18 straight titles. It would add interest.

                She's not shown an ability to win with a top team in IRL (her lone win coming from a fuel conservation strategy), win there first.

                  Danica needs to be a consistent winner first. But then, she got an IRL ride without winning anything but kart races.

                    She needs more wins in IRL, to bolster her cv for a nascar switch. She is great

                      Does the Indy 500 still hold the same mystique for you that it did in the past? Will you watch?

                        From the stands! There is nothing like being there in person & cheering for your favorite.

                          Almost forgot that it was coming on this weekend...haven't heard anything about practice or qualifying, but I know who won "American Idol"!

                            I'll watch it because it IS the Indy 500, the only REAL race at the Brickyard. REAL Race cars DON''T HAVE FENDERS!!!

                              It's Indy. It's the best race of the year.
