Default Milka tests - 04-15-2007 , 09:49 PM






Milka tests at Kansas Speedway, and although she ran 140 laps, no lap times
were available. I suspect the situation is exactly as someone here
predicted. They dialed a ton of downforce in the car and she made laps as a
show.

Anyone car to predict how many chassis she'll destroy between now and the
conclusion of the IRL 500?

Zero. They won't let her get up to speed.

In Champ Car, there's nary a mention of Katherine Legge at all during a
race...when she first joined CCWS, did she get anywhere near the attention
Danica got?

Champ Car treated her pretty much like any other rookie ie a racer not
a media darling or spokesmodel.

Still.... I think it's odd that they haven't said much of anything
about her..

hopefully she runs the indy 500 and is killed midway thru the racem
cancelling the indy 500 forever and putting the irl out of its misery

The IRLers (old USACers) can't handle a driver that is both female and
foreign. They're having a lot more personal problems with it... Loss of
sleep, cold sweats, chills, the usual...
