DEI Intimidators

Racing Princess played her first season at the Palace in 2007 and didn�t do too bad. For starters, she finished 7th in overall points after getting 6 wins. The cup series wasn�t where it was at for her yet she showed her hand well in both Busch & truck. In Busch, she finished 7th and got 2 wins including Montreal. In truck, she did even better by finishing 6th and getting 4 wins. Racing Princess is a proud member of the Dale Earnhardt Incorporated Intimidators team and they managed to get 4th in team points overall.
Racing Princess came into the 2007 Chase looking to claim her spot in the record books, as she had watched her fellow family members. However, 2007 wasn�t her year to shine as she finished 10th with no wins. To cap it off, she finished 8th in Busch and 10th in Truck.
For 2008, she scored her first ever cup win by winning the UAW-Dodge Dealer 400 and did better in Nationwide for 2008 as she won 4 races, including the Food City 250. Though she wouldn't be as strong in the Truck Series as she'd only win 3 races, including Charlotte, on her way to finishing 8th in points. But she left her mark in the newly added ARCA Series as she won a race at Iowa on her way to finishing 10th in points. In the USAR Southern Series, she won 4 races with those being USA International, Concord, 4 Brothers 250, and the Greased Lightning 250, but wouldn't make the chase as she'd finish 13th, 20 points out of 12th. Finally in the East Series, she would win a race at Walkin's Glen.

In the 2008 Chase, Racing Princess caught us all by surprise as she won the Nationwide Chase, 60 points over 2nd with a win in the Ford 300. She kept these good ways going with an 8th place finish in ARCA.
