I'm just tired of all the fan fare whenever a chick makes the grid...Let's see some results!
Heck, you didn't her me crowing when Montel was racing for Jordan... "Look a black guy is racing!". He didn't finish for crap! Does he get the same excuses? Trust me, there are a heck of a lot more black guys that ride than women.
