Looks like Danica will replace Keseloski at JR Motorsports:

Actually, it would be in what is now the 5 car that runs part-time in the Nationwide Series. The 88 car, Keselowski's current Nationwide ride, will be driven full-time in 2010 and beyond by Kelly Bires.

I think she is making a big mistake.  NASCAR is terrible. She has the looks of a model and the personality of a pitbull.  They must be paying her a fortune to make the move.

Actually, it is supposed to be for low bucks, she wants to 'test the waters' in the nationwide series. Sounds like a wise move to me, try it a bit before making a full switch. I think it will definitely draw some attention and be a boost for the series, something NASCAR as a whole needs......

Hmmmm...a big name personality joining a lower-than-Cup level NASCAR Series on a part time basis to "test the waters" and gain experience, bringing much hype & potential attention to said lower NASCAR Series...sounds like a certain Fish look-a-like character 10 years ago ;-p






Probably more legit this time around ;-)

I don't think she has the talent to do stock cars "part time." She needs to choose Indy cars or NASCAR but not both. I predict she will do very poorly.

I wonder if they'd have her make her debut in the Toyota All-Star Showdown? Nascar would approve her for the race as it's pretty much open to anyone who wants to show up.

Not likely to happen but Irwindale Speedway certainly wouldn't be upset with the extra publicity ;-)

i remember meeting sara fisher there (irwindale) when sean caisse ran for barney his rookie year. met her during the on track autograph session as she was signing and handing out the west series #2 car's (mike david?) hero cards. i was after 3 cards for the kids and wowed to meet her after seeing her race at indy and a fan of hers. she saw the blue cassella crew shirt with the 5 on it and was talking about how well the car had run and how we were doing. was pretty cool. sorry i hijacked the danica thread for sara fisher.
