Favourite Driver?
Been meaning to post this for a while, now this forum is getting busy, so there's no better time....
My favourite driver would have to be Carl Edwards, When I first saw him at Daytona (before this season I'd only seen a few Brickyard and Daytona races around 2000) I just loved his attitude and personality, that's an addictive smile. other favourites would be Boris Said, Jeff Burton and Matt Kenseth. yours? |

I have a lot of drivers I really like. Richard Petty is my all time favorite. All three of the Bodine brothers are pretty high on my list too. Alan Kulwicki is a favorite because he was an engineer and is one of the biggest underdogs in racing history. I also like Boris Said and Bobby Labonte, Kasey Kahne, Dave Blaney, Kyle Petty, and Joe Nemechek.
I also like Robby Gordon even though he has a tendency to do stupid things every once and a while. I suppose its because he's pretty interesting to watch and is willing to race anything. J.D. Last edited by kingfloopy; 25 Aug 2006 at 12:55. |

My favourite will be Juan Pablo Montoya, whenever that first appearance occurs!
But to be honest, there is nobody I really dislike in NASCAR. They all contribute to a stunning show. |

I'm a Bobby Labonte man, been supporting him since I started watching in 98. He's a top bloke and clean racer. I also have a bit of a soft spot for 'Front Row' Joe Nemechek.
Though I am sure I will have JPM and possibly JV to add to that list if they ever make it to the cup. |

It USED to be Harvick along with Junior but in light of his recent comments I couldn't care less for him.
1) Dale Junior 1) Jacques Villeneuve? 3) JPM 4) Truex (a semi-local driver, and he drives for DEI so that is another plus) 5) Ambrose |

Rusty......oops, forgot he retired.
Bobby Labonte Jeff Burton Jeff Gordon Dale, Jr Boris Said ( we raced against him in Trans Am in 2000. I also seen him get hit in the face with a pie while standing on the podium at VIR after winning the race and Championship ) Actually, I like most of them with the exception of a couple, well maybe 4 of them that I don't really care that much for. |

Knowlesy and Nicky, rooting against at least one driver is a NASCAR tradition.

Well, I've only been watching three years and still have found nobody to hate.
I must find someone! |

Primary favorites:
Dale Earnhardt Jr. Tony Stewart Denny Hamlin Carl Edwards (I expect to add Steve Wallace and Juan-Pablo Montoya as well whenever they make their respective Cup-debuts.) My all-time favorites, however, are Rusty Wallace, Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Davey Allison. I used to dislike Jeff Gordon a lot (and I mean a lot), but ever since he ditched his golddiggin' trophy-wife and suddenly became more human - both off and on the track - I really don't have anyone out there that I dislike. |

Gordon, Junior, Tony and Harvick. I do have a little GM bias though. Looking forward to seeing Montoya race.

Denny Hamlin looks good, he's very consistent and level headed, he'll be a star.
Is Clint Bowyer related to Jeff Burton, they look similar, I think he's good too, just can't catch a break at the moment.. I'm a fan of engineer-drivers, I'm a mechanic so I can relate, a driver that can build the car (in the the early days now, or when growing up) is really a great skill that I respect. I'm not a big fan of Jeff Gordon or Jimmie Johnson, they just seem a bit boring to me that's all I really have against them :P |
