How about Stroker Ace!?

Oh, that wasn't real?...

Cale Yarborough!?

Huh?! Retired?...

OK...uh..."Awesome Bill" from Dawsonville?

Pretty much anybody BUT Rusty or #24...I more or less lost any interest in NASCAR when Dale Earnhardt passed. I am always amazed at how popular it is and how its popularity is such a regional thing -- it really thrives in the south which may be why it gets a redneck tag...which is inappropriate. It holds true: "All rednecks are NASCAR fans, but not all NASCAR fans are rednecks"
