She is fast, but any time I've streamed the cameras and radio from her car, I find her folding under pressure. I did the same thing the first two years I raced. Eventually, you need to learn to shutup and drive during a race. She's really bad at not knowing when to not talk, she'll open up and talk in the middle of a corner, watch her lap time, and that lap will be slower. When she talks for half the laps...she's not racing as well. When she shuts up and drives, she can well. Brad K. may wait 4 or 5 laps until he's in a decent position to answer his crew chief's question. Even then, its in fragments each time he's on the straight.

As for weight, yeah, maybe a small advantage from ballast, but nothing I'd complain about. She's going to have a fast car with that Hendrick know-how no matter what.
