Now days since Dale's gone I think Gordon probably has the most pure driving talent out of everyone on the track....he just can't get it together these days and nascar has changed a lot.Quote:

Stewart wins in everything he drives, he won in USAC, open-wheel, stock car racing it doesn't matter. He is just the best. Also all of you talking about Jr, if his dad wasn't who he was then Jr wouldn't be racing today, he just doesn't have the talent.Quote:

I'm not a Jr nut swinger by any means--- but I do think he is a good driver. Not the best-- but good.
Kyle Petty-- now that is someone who can't do shit-- subtract Petty from his name, and then you have someone not qualified to be driving (currently)
Well hell..........he sure as hell had it together last year.......it's early this year, time will tell!Quote:

Your man Gordon did come in second though I believe lol. I'm not talking about the best stock car driver, I said best driver, and as a racecar driver he is the best. As for Kyle Petty yes he is a joke lol he should be racin that Warren Wallace kid in those commercials.Quote:

He loves to race....period. He spends days off racing. Gotta like the guy. Now here lately I'm liking Kyle Busch because the kid can drive, don't take shit from no one, he'd rather wreck than lose, and people hate him. Sounds like someone else I used to root for. I still pull for Stewart but Busch is definitely getting my attention.
The main difference between stewart and gordon is that gordon is a much smarter driver. I could never root for gordon because I hated that guy with a passion but when you're talking racing in a nascar race I don't think even Stewart is as good as gordon is. Gordon is a very smart and a very smooth driver. You rarely see him beating and banging with people like stewart does. He finesses his way around them.
Im sure KB doesnt really care what we all think of him. He's the guy that gets to hold the shiny thing at the end and thats what its about.
Come on Weston.......what do you think a "poll" is?Quote:

He drives it all, him and Gordon were both Indiana sprint car boys when they started out (after Gordon moved there to race) and Stewart was a lot more successful then (but Gordon was like 16 and running a full size sprint car. They are both very talented in a racecar no doubt about it. It's nice to have an argument with someone who at least knows what there talkin about. I'm becoming a much bigger Kyle Busch fan, his job is to win races and he does it better then anyone at the moment, that doesn't make him a dickhead like some people say.Quote:

Now as for the best driver ....well its simple there really isnt any 1 top driver , because A)they are all good at there jobs or they wouldnt be there. (b)to be #1 you have to win the cup and that changes every year or two, he who holds the cup is #1. Now 1 thing about tony that i like he'll race u like u race him , fuck with him and fuck ur ass up but damn man cut ur hair would ya .
again its just my opinion
I have a bit of a problem with (A) they are not all good at there jobs. You have enough money, or the right last name (Petty) (Andretti) you can race. Hell Kyle Petty has ZERO talent. And this new Chase thing where they take the top twelve and put them all close again for the last races changes a lot. It's not the season champ really its just whoever got hot at the right time. I mean you can have a 400 point lead then when it starts you have a 5 point lead. Oh and Tony did cut his hair lol.Quote:

He can go jump in anything and be fast. Started on the front row at Indy twice. Gordon never runs anything but NASCAR now...Stewart is racing at some dirt track on a Saturday night if he isn't racing in Cup.Quote:
