The one who has the most spectacular wreak.

I'm hoping to see Joey Logano have a good season this year, and a win at Daytona would be a great start. You can't count out any of the Hendrick drivers, or guys like Matt Kenseth in plate races.

+1 for Kyle Busch. He is about due and definitely has what it takes to win at Daytona.

Is that the race where they just keep going in a circle for half a day? Who cares?

Yep 40 rednecks driving in a circle. I still only watch for wreaks, only way I'll can see a 20 car pile-up and not be in it.

Gotta go with Tony Stewart. He's way overdue.

I like these people who say NASCAR isn't real racing. I'd like to see them in the car going 75% of the speed they do during the race, with no other cars on the track, even just riding with someone else driving,they would soil thier pants.
I think the best driver is Kyle Bush, but I always loved the 43 car so I hope AJ wins it. I think he will win at least one this year.

The "stars" from those other racing organizations that have tried their hand at it would likely agree. Most of them did not fare well in NASCAR.

Tony Stewart for sure man, gotta love Smoke lol

...and yeah, 150+ MPH only mere inches away from 1-3 other cars where one little error can be disastrous is not easy and is an a**hole clencher for sure

+1...To anyone that says it's not real racing, I challenge you to join even a local weekend event and finish in the top 5; I guarantee it's a lot harder than you think. Even in a 350hp Late Model it's a different ball game than any other racing I've done. And were talking 850hp and 200 mph inches apart, even Indy and F1 drivers have historically failed to be successful in NASCAR. With a few exceptions.

I'll just never be poor or stupid enough to enjoy NASCAR
