Danica Patrick to keep Q A with fans at Phoenix International Raceway: Danica Patrick, who will make her Phoenix International Raceway NASCAR debut during the upcoming Kobalt Tools 500 race weekend Nov. 13-14, will meet with fans during a Q&A at PIR's Budweiser ROLL-BAR stage on Friday, Nov. 12.

The event will be open to all ticketed race fans, with a special section reserved for PIR season-ticket holders. Patrick drives the No. 7 GoDaddy.com Chevrolet for JR Motorsports in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. She previously raced at PIR in the Indy Cars series. "I look forward to going back to Phoenix - it's a place I thought was cool in an Indy Car," Patrick said. "It will be nice to sleep in my own bed. I'm excited for that. I think Phoenix is a great track. I think it's challenging, and I'm sure it will be even more challenging in a stock car with less grip.
