[B]Indy Car driver Danica Patrick has never been afraid to push boundaries. Now she is pushing a new one as she will voice a character in the upcoming video game [I]Blur[/I] from Activision.[/B]

"The interesting part is where you meet me."[/INDENT]In [URL=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/racing/04/21/danica/index.html]a Sports Illustrated article[/URL], she likes the idea of playing with friends:
