Used to be back in the 80's and 90's. Lost interest after Sr. died.

Not following Austin Dillon in the 3 car? He's been a big hit among Dale Sr. fans since he hit Sprint Cup. And Dale Jr. still races pretty strong, though he certainly doesn't have the same "intimidator" style as his dad did.

I'm more of a Kasey Kahne fan (rough season so far for him), but I've always really liked Jeff Gordon. Both Hendrick, and Gordon's doing EXTREMELY well right now!

I have been a Kurt Busch/Newman fan when Dodge got back into Nascar.
the last few years i was a Stewert/Newman/Patrick fan, but now
mostly just a Ryan fan... looking like he may make the chase even without a win.
I'll be attending the Bristol race, it is a great fun time with 7-8 of us...

I used to be as well. All the old school drivers are either retired or gone. Mark Martin was my last hope, but he's semi (or even full?) retired now...

I like Mark Martin as a driver and person. Always chuckled when the old man was competitive in a race and his sponsor was Viagra...

Even though Kahne is my favorite, I also strong support Stewart and Patrick, and my favorite rookie is Kyle Larson. Kurt and Newman have always been somewhere in the in-between with me, but they certainly are good racers. I got to attend the Texas race earlier this year, and it was a blast (other than the fact that it was delayed a day). It's always fun to spend a day at the races!

Martin really doesn't race too much any more, if I'm right. He was around a bit last season, but I'm not entirely sure if he showed up this season. Still, I'd definitely say the sport is worth watching, even with old school drivers gone.

I get tired of the dumb rules and obvious cautions for star drivers... the horrible playoff format that has given Johnson 3 or 4 more titles that he deserved. (He wouldn't have half if it was the old format)... tired of cautions for plastic.... bleh

Used to be a big Ryan Newman fan... Dodge being out doesn't help.
