    Ummm...Biffle?

    JUST KIDDING oh awesome one!

    It changes every week, but I really like the Rob Moroso answer, unfortunately many on here don't have a clue who he was...it's been a long time. For you young things, he was on his way to being a true NASCAR star, when he actually was killed while driving drunk. You'd think a professional driver would know better, but I guess sometimes they're just as clueless as the rest of us.

    Whatever happened to Buckshot Jones?

    Jr is certainly the most over rated. With the amount of fans he has, you'd think he's won 4 championships and 60 races in his career. He's certainly not the worst, he's average at best. Juan Pablo is doing fine, regardless of what some of the misinformed and prejudiced fans of NASCAR tend to "think." That whole incident at the Glen with him and Harvick was Truex's fault. Had Truex not rammed into the rear of JPM he wouldn't have hit Harvick. JP also ran a good race at Bristol. I'd have to say the worst driver in NASCAR is Michael Waltrip. Look at his numbers! 25 years in NASCAR and he has 4 wins to show for it. Not to mention the fact he's missed more than half the races this year, and the ones hes raced he hasnt raced well. Worst of all, he doesn't even seem to care. Here's to hoping Ruetimann can get out of there while he's young, and Dale Jarrett can get out before he goes down on a low low low low note.

    Im my mind it's David "Wreck 'Em" Ragan for full time drivers and Michael Waltrip (he's ALWAYS been overrated) for the part timers. Ragan because he has the benefit of good equipment and a proven team but still seems to constantly cause wrecks. Mikey because the only time he ever did anything was at the superspeedways when DEI had the best restrictor plate program in NASCAR. He wrecks a lot and is too one dimensional (can only drive the high line).

    Ok, Kennseth and Kurt Busch make Jr. look bad? Maybe this year but over their careers the numbers are pretty close to each others, look up all the stats first before you spout them off.

    Wow 2 thumbs down simply for pointing out the facts. Ok first off Kenseth has one more start than Jr, 281 to 280, Busch has 245 starts so there's not that big a difference. Lemme get this straight now, your team goes to s**t and you're a bad driver? I don't get how equipment failures and people running into the back of you equate to being a bad driver.

  • In my opinion, Dale Earnhardt Jr. The guy is way overrated. Just because he sells merchandise on his dad's name people insist that he must be a good driver. When you look at his stats he is not impressive at all. There are MANY drivers in the garage way better than he is. He doesn't even stack up against the guys like Kurt Busch, Jimmie Johnson, Matt Kenseth, when you look at the stats they all make him look bad. Jr is just a seat filler who sells hats and shirts, when it comes down to it, I think he is the least talented guy in the Hendrick garage.

    Yeah you need to look up the stats there buddy look how many more starts jr has than kenseth or busch and they are both champs jr may never be.

    David Ragan....just learn how to drive, same with Steven Wallace in the Busch Series...

  • 1 decade ago

    Well I have a couple drivers for some reasons.

    -Dale Earnhart Jr. because he's over rated because of his dad.

    -JPM because his Mission Objective is to wreak every driver out there.

    -David Ragan because he made 3 cautions in a row! Plus he has a good car but he drives horrible

    -Kyle Petty because the only reason why he drives because of his last name.Plus he stinks as an announcer

    -Happy Harvick because he's a little baby when somebody crashes him and why did he yell at Greg Biffle like that in Bristol of 2002

    -Out of all the above its Kyle Petty

    I look to the Busch series- Stephen Wallace is just one wreck after another. Kyle Krisiloff is a close second.

    In the big show- that's hard. It's easy to pick on Montoya, but really, it's pretty close between Jeff Green, Johnny Sauter, and Dave Ragan.

    Steven Wallace in the Busch series and Dale Jarrett in the Cup series.

    Here are a few, who have made all the races:

    26th Reed Sorenson 2120 -1462

    28th David Gilliland 2021 -1561

    29th Jeff Green 2011 -1571

    30th Ricky Rudd 1974 -1608

    BTW, R. Gordon is 27th, but missed a race. 31 - 35 have not made all of the races. These are some of this season's worst.
