No. Lyn St. James has finished twice, both out of the top 10 as I recall.
The differance is that Lyn wasn't "hawt" and "23" and backed by Letterman. So her actual driving talent, which surpasses Danica Patrick's by a large margin thus far in Patrick's young career, went largely wasted in terms of PR value.
Now if only Paris Hilton could drive an IRL car...then GFY and the rest of the world would be annointing her the "Next Mario Andretti" apparantly...lol. Clowns.
