Wasn't that the 500 where she hit the guy behind her and 4 other drivers wrecked trying to avoid the spin, under the yellow flag, because she got carried away swerving back and forth and spun out trying to warm up her tires?
Yes, I believe it was.

Man that was funny. spinning out at 80 mph, behind the pace car, under yellow, and taking out the guy behind her and 4 others. I had to wait until she took her helmet off to see if she had dyed her hair blonde.

She just had to get a new front wing but IIRC 4 of the other 5 who wrecked because of her were out of the race. I wonder if they stomped their feet and threw a hissy fit in the pits like she's been known to do?

Re: the nascar thing, I predict it will not work out well for her. The safety crews will have to staff up, the people who sell and and repair the cars will make out, but her sponsors and the team owner will end up dropping her after they get the bills for all those wrecked racecars.

She has a nitch in indycars, even though she isn't that good. She should just stay there until she fades back to obscurity.

After reading your comments, I'm starting to think she'll be the female version of Kyle Bush.....He too is busy wrecking other cars during the race (but not during the caution laps).
