I have tried very hard to give her the benefit of the doubt, but in Cup she is in way over her head. Her handlers have given her bad advice since the start and no one is going to turn down money and tell her the truth that she needs to step back down to Nationwide or Trucks. She doesn't really have anyone who has her best interests in mind, Tony included. I think with the right management she could get a handle on stock cars, but she wont have the time to do it in Cup. They need to move her down, run competitively for a championship or two in Nationwide or Trucks then move back up. Of course she also has to hope a more talented female does't come up with some money and steal the spotlight. There are a number of girls just chomping at the bit for a chance to move into the Truck Series. All of them can handle a car better than Danica and wins in the Truck Series by a female will overshadow a pole at Daytona any day of the week.
My money is still on Kenzie Ruston she is paired with Turner Scott Motorsports and Mr. Turner is known as a good scout of talent. Most importantly he knows how to bring a rookie up. She had a good run at Iowa this weekend with a 7th place finish, she leads the rookie standings and is 7th in points in the K&N East Series.
