I think Danica is possibly on the same level as Scott Speed - if she started in ARCA, and then did a year in Nationwide, I think she'd do much better. But just doing a few random races in between IndyCar races isn't going to do anything but make her look bad.

Yeah - she's going to struggle, no question - NASCAR is on a whole different level. On top of that, jumping back & forth between the two series through the season is likely to impact on her performance in the open wheeler.
Still, she's old enough to make up her own mind but I think that she'll be learning the hard way this time.
If nothing else the hissy fits should be entertaining.
