CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The first leg of the "Danica Double" was a bit of a bust after Danica Patrick crashed out of the Daytona 500.
She still has the Indianapolis 500 ahead of her, and Patrick has set an extremely high bar for the final race of her career.
"I'm going there to win the thing," Patrick said.
Patrick begins her Indy 500 preparations in earnest next week with a seat fitting at Ed Carpenter Racing in Indianapolis. She will climb behind the wheel of an Indy car for the first time since 2011 on March 29 during a Chevrolet test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
