Danica Wins Pole for Daytona 500!

Danica with team owner Tony Stewart.
Danica wins Pole Position for the Daytona 500 and becomes the first woman to win a Pole for a NASCAR Sprint Cup race ever. With her qualifying speed of 196.434, she also posted the 2nd fastest speed in restrictor plate qualifying history. After watching her during testing in January and the 2 practices yesterday, I had a feeling she was the one to beat. Even 2012 Series Champion Brad Keselowski predicted Danica to win Pole as he tweeted this morning at 8AM ET. That's why I put $100 down for her to win the Daytona 500 last night. Her odds of winning as of yesterday were 80-1. Those odds will change dramatically. Gotta love living in Vegas.
