James Franco: Drivers and Danica start your engines!

The most famous words in racing, delivered by James Franco (with some minor adjustments)...

[mesabog]

Thank you James Franco...still laughing 6 years later!

I remember laughing my ass off when this happened. Danica is shit. 201 Nascar starts and 96 wrecks.

[Borchert]

You guys, I don't think he meant it in a bad way. I think saying "Gentlemen and Danica" would've suited his case more, I think he was just trying to give Danica an extra shout out.

[BackRowRacing]

I think he meant "gentleman and Danica" but that made me laugh so hard!

[theMstanglover]

It's funny how people are telling James Franco that he's a low life, but he has much more achievements for what he's done than Danica.

[Zerinsakech]

Lol everyone calm down. He had an interview with Rutledge Wood before the race. Rutledge asked him if he would do anything special for the command to start the engines. James said he was a huge fan of Danica Patrick and would try and do something for her on the side. He didn't mean anything bad in his intros. He was just emphasizing Danica being in the race. Although he could of said it better.

This has to be the greatest grand mashaling ever lmfao.

[nuclearcrayons]

I come back here every now and then just to lol Thanks James Franco 😘 You bring me joy all these years later 🤣

[johnnycloud]

I don't think she is a bad driver. She is just mediocre. But a lot of drivers are like her. Not really good and not really bad.

[DavidJ]

Ouch, he totally burned Danica there. xD

[mesabog]

oh god...I laughed for ten minutes straight after this I almost passed out

[MrGummybearluver]

I think he meant to say 'gentlemen, and danica' and made an oopsie.
Still died laughing. XD

[stevos]

Just checked NASCAR. She finished 8th. McDowell finished 9th. I didnt' think my eyes deceived me at the end of the race.

[noneofurbiss]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm Rollin on the floor

[teddybear]

I can see how someone would think it was offensive but he obviously meant to say gentlemen and danica. it was an accident

[mikziv]

Timothy Massey. you sure got that right

[SiNziMPACT]

He may not be a boss, but he is the Great and Powerful Oz lol

[ChrisMolyneaux]

He meant to say "Gentlemen and Danica."

[jsgk]

Lol he thought of kyle pettys comment, "Shes not a driver." Lol

[etoileblau]

What’s wrong with some people? He just wants to stress the fact that she’s there. It’s drivers and that special lady who is doing something very relevant, so he decided to have a nice gesture with her. Some people try to find evil intentions where there are none. I’m sorry to see there are so many bitter people…
