Now that the season is almost over I was just wondering who is your favorite driver and who will win the championship?

Mine is Tony "smoke" Stewart

My top two are Tony and Jr. but I also like Juan Pablo Montoya.

Dale Jarrett and Mark Martin. I cruised with Ned Jarrett back in 1992. Oh, and Richard and Kyle Petty too.

The money will be on Jimmy Johnson to win.

I met and talked to Dale Sr. at the track here in Rockingham. I was working as a firefighter at the track during the races. Even got his autogragh. That was back in 1997

My son and a friend of his went to a race years ago and Richard Petty almost ran them over in his golf cart. Richard signed thier hats.

Richard is a great guy. Very easy to be around and still a country boy at heart, despite his fame and fortune.

That says a lot about the people from North Carolina. Easy going!!!

Not to make a generalization or anything!

I have liked Jimmy since he made the jump to Winston Cup, (Nextel). He is a brilliant driver for such a young guy.

Like Jeff Burton, Carl Edwards and Kasey Kahne. Never have cared for Tony Stewart, Bobby Labonte or Harvick.

Carl Edwards is cool, although the backflip is getting old.

I agree, so is climbing the fence. I prefer a good burn-out.
