Bowling for tires and the IRL has a golden boy li

How many tires did she hit, at least 3.  Why was nothing said about the tires she hit about 3 pits away from her pit after the first tire was hit.  If you can't say anything good about Dannica, you don't say anything.  Like NASCAR and the 8 car.  Marty Reid says about half-way thru race, "and Danica is up to 7th".  About six laps later the camera shows her car on the track and Marty says, "lets see, Danica is up to 8th now". Like that's to give the tv audience the impression that she's moving up.  But I was disappointed we didn't see the 4th grade foot stomp after she crashed into the wall coming into the pits.  Would have been great.

Speed News or whatever they call the highlight show on Sunday night showed her stomping off after she ran into the pitwall.

Actually I believe the Stomping Off Clip was from last year after running out of gas but I'm not sure which race.  I saw it for the 1st time during an awards program during the 24 Hour Race @ Daytona this year. Sorry I can't be more specific.

At least JR can come up with a win from time to time to balance out the preferential treatment.
