First mistake is reading Sports Illustrated for anything MotorSports related.

What Jonesi said.

Mark Dwyer deserves a smack upside the head for his Chase brain child.

Gee..no discussion on how accurate those 15 names are? I would say pretty damned accurate, not that it was really that tough.

For SI, that actually was a pretty good article......just explaining the obvious I suppose but hey, people like lists.

[Haulin'AssAndTurnin Left]

I really dont think any driver should be on the list. why isn't Bruton Smith in there?. No Humpy Wheeler ethier.

Agreed. Forget who did the list but ask yourself how accurate it is. I tend to think that it is probably pretty close. Maybe a few changes could be made but it is actually close to reality.

I dare say that without Bruton and Humpy, there may be no night racing. First track with lights was Lowe's. And people thought that they were NUTS.

I think for the most part, quite accurate. One would have to include Bruton/Humpy.

Also, Richard Childress is missing.

[harvick#1]

ummm, Brian France #1 and Helton #2, Pablo in #15 (maybe its actually the top 15 idiots in Nascar : )

but its SI, there really dumb when it comes to racin.


how is Dale Jr. on there but not Dale Earnhardt.

Teresa Earnhardt but not Childress

I dont think drivers have power. maybe a little influance over the fans but not much more than that.

Remember when they tried to start a drivers union and nascar banned Turner and Flock. "This is NASCAR's show" i believe was nascars comment.

Plus theres probably a few people with alot of power who us common folk have never and will never have heard of.

LMAO. For the same reason that Brian france is there instead of Bill France, they are dead.
