Hip-Hop pioneer Spyder D (whose real name is Duane Hughes), basketball franchise owner, turned racing jacket designer, turned manager, was recently flipping through some recent auto racing blogs when he noticed yet some more talk about Danica Patrick thinking about moving to NASCAR.
“Who ever is handling Danica is smart as hell”, he mumbled to himself. “She can bring that up year after year, and get a rise out of everyone, including NASCAR, and especially her sponsors. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!”
“In the meantime, my client, Chrissy Wallace, who has toiled in the short track races, paid her dues, had a promising first year in NASCAR’s Truck Series, and I can’t even get a sponsor for her jacket, much less for her racing exploits! I understand it’s because of the sudden down turn in the economy, but still…”. His voice trailed off.
Hughes had recently brought Chrissy and her dad, Mike (the middle brother in the legendary Wallace racing trio; Older brother Rusty and younger brother Kenny) to NY to discuss various opportunities with a prominent branding company, and were encouraged by the conversation.
“NASCAR has been looking for juicy stories all season! There it is! Chrissy Wallace versus Danica Patrick as a preview to next season! It would certainly heighten what has been an otherwise dismal season, and brighten the future for the sport. Chrissy Wallace and Joey Logano are the future of that sport, yet, I can’t get a sponsor to put her on the track this season.
Incredible!
Absolutely incredible!”
