    Is it fair or is it men whining now that Dana won a race?

    Dana Kirkpatrick, all 100 pounds of her entered 50 Indy car races and she finally won one. And at the same time the men are complaining that her light weight gives her an advantage so the Indy Racing Association has put a drive weight standard into the mess. Is this fair or is it men whining? Is there some rule that says men can not lose weight? Or is it they are just all fat slugs and too lazy to lose weight so take it out on Dana? Or should they put a weight limit on the car AND driver combined? Is what the IRL doing fair or not?

    First off her name is Danika Patrick. No it is not fair. She was going to win eventually. I am surprised it took her this long. She is a great driver, and there will be many more wins to come

    Anyone paying attention this year knows that all of the cars with the driver ARE to meet a minimum weight. In other words, all of the cars weigh the same WITH the driver included.

    It's Danica Patrick, not Dana Kirkpatrick. And they're not fat slugs professional auto racers are some of the more fit atheletes in the world, it's just how often do you see a 100 pound full grown man? Personally, I think Indy should follow in the steps of Nascar and make all the vehicles, with driver wieght included, a standard. They might already, I don't follow Indy as closely as some other venues.

    Its Danica Patrick. Get over it she is lighter, just lose some weight. Danica Patrick works out hard and so should the other drives whinning. They should have kept the old rule. They had a minimum for the car + driver. Now they have the minimum for the car and driver, Danica needs to add weight to be even the heaviest car. STupidity

    It's a bunch of bull.. It has taken her 50 races to finally win her first race. They should be happy for her. Also, about them being "fat slugs"...... Do you have any clue as to what your talking about or did you just read one article and become a fucking know it all? There will never be a weight limit with the body/car combined. The men are only weighing 50 pounds more anyway..
