Kyle Busch’s Fiancée

NASCAR, WAG 19 Comments »

kyle-busch-samantha-sarcinellaKyle Busch proposed to his girlfriend, Samantha Sarcinella earlier this month. They met at the Brickyard in 2007 and their first date was at TGI Fridays. It’s not getting kicked out of an Applebee’s, but it worked. The romance didn’t stop at a chain restaurant though. “He not only designed the vintage-style engagement ring but he got down on one knee to pop the question on the first night they had their new motor home.” Don’t go changing NASCAR. Don’t you ever go changing. “Our motor home is like our home away from home. She helped me build and design, it so it’s kind of our first home together.” More production stills from She’s Out of My League can be found below. Read the rest of this entry »

Danica Patrick Wrecks In Debut

NASCAR 24 Comments »

danica-patrickYes, NASCAR’s sex kitten Danica Patrick crashed in her Nationwide Series debut yesterday. Do I know what the Nationwide Series is? No. Do I care? No. She did what everyone that watches NASCAR really wants to see – she crashed! There’s video after the jump!

A bunch of people crashed, including Chrissy Wallace who is also a woman and was also making her NWS debut. She’s not as pretty as Danica though so you probably haven’t heard much about her. Maybe if she was in a shitty Go Daddy commercial or took her top off we could take her seriously.
