Bobby Labonte
Ward Burton
Dale Jarrett
Jeff Gordon
Miller TymeI like to cheer for Dale Jr, Rusty, and Michael Waltrip...but if there was a last lap fight to the checkers I would like to see Johnny Benson cross the line first.[:)]
Miller TymeIn my business (NASCAR writer) I have to like ALL of them!
That being said, I do favor anyone that drives a Ford. I m a Bill Elliott fan from way back, and like Jarrett, Jeff Burton, and a host of others. I also was Richard Petty fan for years, but saying that really gives away my age...

They still have NASCAR? I thought racing ended at the Daytona 500 a couple of years ago, now its just not racing anymore, drivers just do laps and play " who s your buddy today" for the last 3 laps. BORING!
Lee I keep telling you that there are other sports besides Hockey. See I didn t lie to you. Some people here like NASCAR.[;)]
I don t have a favorite driver. I will not say any more.
Miller TymeMy favorite driver? Gee, can you guess?[;)]
Bobby Labonte is my #1 favorite; Terry is #1-1/2! (Don t want to call him #2.)
Ol DW was my first favorite...watched him and Dale Earnhardt fight all night long for the lead at the 1st WC race I ever attended--the 1985 Busch 500 at Bristol. Dale ended up winning finally. (When your first race is the Bristol night race, you re guaranteed to be immediately hooked!)
I like most of the drivers, although there are a few I m not too crazy about.
I was tickled to see Johnny Benson finally get his 1st win this past season. I got a chance to talk to Johnny for about an hour or so a couple of years ago. From seeing him on TV, I always thought he would be a really nice person. He was even nicer than I thought he would be!
Love to watch Johnny, Mikey, and Kenny on Inside Winston Cup!
Since this is a camping forum, here s a little piece of NASCAR/camping trivia! We ve been camping at Bristol for the last several years (even though I only live about an hour away). We used to camp in the unreserved Dragway tent camping area. They also have a lot of reserved camping in the Dragway area that s just for campers since it s all either asphalt or gravel. Kenny Schrader s mom usually camps in the Dragway with us " regular" folks. Sometimes Kenny rides his motorcycle over to visit her! She has a big motorhome, which you could recognize by the big yellow M&M in the window! LOL!! (Guess she ll have to change that this year. [:(]
Miller TymeFastest man ever in NASCAR of course...........Bill Elliott (even though he s in a Dodge now [: (])
Cheers
Miller TymeTony Stewart!
2002 was a great year!
If Stewarts not in the hunt... Dale Jarret or Mark Martin.
Miller TymeWell since Dale Earnhardt is no longer with us, any body driving a DEI car.
Dale jr. Michael Waltrip,and Steve Park!!!!
Miller TymeI am a die hard Jeff Gordon fan! I have always liked him since he came to the cup circuit. I was a little disappointed at how he is handling things with his marriage though. In contrast to Gone Camping, I don t like Fords, but these are the things that make the world go around. I also like Bill Elliott as a driver, I think he is a class act. I used to like DW before he retired, but I absolutely have NO USE for Rusty Wallace, " I" think he should retire. So just like all things (religion and politics) it s the differences and the personal likes and dislikes that make the world go around.[:D][:D]
I wish all the drivers a good and safe 2003, come on Daytona!!!!!!
Happy Campin <><
Miller TymeAs you can see by my name, y all know who I like. Unfortunately, I am not that much into racing anymore since Dale died. I still go to the races but it is definitely not the same without Dale. I also like Tony Stewart because he reminds me of Dale Sr. I absolutely cannot stand Jeff Gordon (if you ever listened to him on a scanner you would understand why)! It was nice to see Benson win a race, the next person I want to see win one is Steve Park and Kenny Schraeder. I hope he gets himself into a decent ride this year. If you want to see what a race fan I am, check out my website and see how I have my seasonal site decorated. I am told that it is the most original one that the campground has ever seen.

Miller TymeTrlrboy,
Now you are really aging yourself...lol. I must say that the races were more fun back in the 60 sand 70 s.
Miller Tyme Mark Martin #6
Miller TymeDH was a Junior Johnson fan, pulled for the driver that drove for him regardless if he liked them or not.
I m a Bill Elliott fan, been one since he started racing the circuit part time.
Oldest DD is a Jeff Gordon fan, 9 years old and she says " he s cute" . Oh well.
Cannot think of one that we definitely do not like, so at least we re not upset when someone else wins.[:D]
Miller TymeSpeedBuggy!!!!! [8D]
Miller TymeAlways...Dale Jarrett....The Gentleman of NASCAR
