I think you'll find the average weight of a top level race driver is around>150-160. There are very few large drivers in high-end cars for just that>reason.>

There is not a single IRL driver or F1 driver over 160 lbs. if you are too >big you can't physically fit into the car. If you look at ALMS, DTM, or even >NASCAR drivers, closed bodied cars, no one is close to being 200 lbs. the >physical condition that these drivers are in would not allow them to be up >around 180 or 200. the weight difference between Danica and the rest of the >drivers gave her no advantage.

Oh and btw, Danica is listed at weighing 100 lbs, which makes >her around 37 lbs lower than the IRL average.
