I'd love to see Sarah in a "100% funded and winnable World of Outlaws sprint car" as the first time I ever saw Sarah race was in a sprint car in Georgia.

On the other hand, being released by D&R also means that she is free to pursue other options, like maybe a better team will want to replace a departing driver.
She does have the reputation of a solid and reliable driver who finishes races even if laps down. Further, she is not one to have hissy fits like Princess Sparkle Pony.....
Let's see what the off-season brings.

I like both Rice and Fisher and I want to see them both. I'd get rid of some other dead weight on the track.

One good reason: Her cars are pigs. Heard it a bunch of times, "DRR cars look slow." Buddy hasn't lit the world on fire in the DRR ride. Plus, Sarah brings the sponsorship. I'd LOVE to see her winning in the World of Outlaws, Johnny. Better than finishing minus 2 laps in the IRL.

I'm a mixed bag on this one. She's considerably more pleasent in front of the camera then most of the other drivers, but I've lost faith in her as a driver. I know that means most will hate me, but can anyone think of a good reason that even with that car she isn't competing for 12th or 11th. I'm realistic enough to know it'd be hard to crack the top ten in it, but she should be competitive with the likes of Kosuke and Quatro.

Too bad. D&R's performance this year has been hard to figure, as they obviously have put some engineering in place to improve by hiring the Fernandez guys, but some races they've looked lost and others Buddy has looked pretty great.

I just hate that the IRL is once again regressing to the haves and have nots; at times this season it has looked like other teams had a chance (Simmons and Sharp at Texas, Buddy at the Glen, Schekter last week in Michigan) but it is becoming pretty obvious down the stretch that a win isn't going to happen...

I think Fisher's story will be written with the same lines over and over again...if she had a better car, if she had a better team, if she had a better...

Shame. The IRL was always more interesting with her than without her.

Bummer.. she's a class act, and i agree, she "ups the classy" for sure.

Hearing there's a full time, 100% funded and winnable World of Outlaws Sprint Car ready for her *if* she wants it. As much as I'd like to see her win, selfishly I'd still like to see her in Indy Car. She just ups the classy.
