[enigma]

Willy T. Ribbs is black.

I'd have never guessed. I wonder if Wendell Scott was black also?

I don't pay attention to anything except drag racing, so I have no clue about the other forms of motorsports.

My vote(s) for drag racing would have to be:
TF: Garlits, Amato, or Bernstien. Larry Dixon is also up there
FC: Force, or Cruz. Baze is a good driver, but not much of a sportsman
PS: WJ. Anyone that does that much work deserves it.
PM: Cannon
Sportsman: David Rampy


Hey Enigma.... Did you ever post on LS1.com?

I might as well post a serious reply to the question asked. In my opinion my favorite driver is Jimmy Spencer because he will race you the way you race him. Race him clean and he will race you clean, race him dirty and he will put you into the wall. There are a few who will do this as well but they haven't yet earned my respect. As for the best driver, this question is hard to answer without being subjective. In any form of racing there usually is a dominant driver for a while than the rest catch up and so on. One only has to look at last years Nascar series, Ryan Newman won a great number of races last year but didn't win the championship. Matt Kensenth won the championship with consistancy and I think that sucked! I know the points have been massaged for this year but only time will tell if the right repair was made. John Force was a dominate driver in drag racing and although he is great, he went through a drought, we will have to see if he can improve. Drag racing is a sport where you have so many ways of beating yourself, Smoke the tires with too much clutch and you lose. Jump the start and red-light, you lose... **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED** I love that sport.
