Danica finishes 18th at Richmond.

Each of the nearly 3,000 stars on her car represents one of the victims of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.

In a car designed by GoDaddy.com CEO Bob Parsons, Danica ran her first NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Richmond International Raceway. She finished 18th despite making a small mistake by getting into the rear quarter panel of pole setter, Brad Keselowski. Danica went into turn 3 halfway through the race a little too fast and got into Keselowski of which spun him out. Oops! She admitted it was her fault. Still, a great finish after starting 32nd. I believe she most certainly learned a lot today.
