From ESPN: The Richard Petty-Danica Patrick-Tony Stewart saga just won't stop.
Goaded by "Fox & Friends" hosts on Friday morning, Petty accepted Stewart's offer to set up a head-to-head race between Patrick and the NASCAR Hall of Famer.
"I'm 76 years old, OK?" Petty said, grinning, during a live spot from Daytona International Speedway. "It's been 25 years since I've been in a race car. But I'll take that challenge."
When pressed, he reaffirmed, "Oh, yeah. When is this going to happen?"
Stewart had previously told Performance Racing Network that Patrick should challenge NASCAR's all-time leader in wins (200) and co-holder of the championships record (seven) to a match race in equally prepared cars.
"I think that (a race) would pretty much settle it once and for all, maybe get him to shut up a little bit, too," Stewart said. "I will supply the cars. If he wants to race her, I'll make sure they have exactly the same setup in the car and give him the chance. He can drive one of my 14 cars. I don't care."
And if Patrick were to win the race, Stewart said, "If I were her, I'd take (the checkered flag) over there and cram it up his (butt)." http://espn.go.com/racing/nascar/cup/story/_/id/10497829/richard-petty-says-ready-race-danica-Patrick
Danica Patrick has not shown herself to be a good NASCAR driver. In fact, she pretty much sucks. If it weren't for Go Daddy and her sexy commercials, she wouldn't have a ride in NASCAR.
She isn't even the best female driver in NASCAR- I think Johanna Long of the Nationwide series is better and she has beaten Patrick several times with inferior equipment.
So, if there is a race between Petty and Patrick, I'll put my money on Petty.
