Thinking of making a poll about this, but first I wanted to get ideas about drivers.
What driver do you guys think is the worst on the circuit?
What driver do you guys think is the worst on the circuit?
Exactly. You can't drive a car at 200mph into a corner without being a good driver. Period.How do you judge "worst" ? All drivers have some talent or they wouldn't be in the top echelons of racing.
There are 2 or 3 that I can think of that are racing because Daddy bought them a team ---- JW Townley, Paul Menard, and Tony George Jr. I don't know that these 3 will ever set the world on fire --- unless they hit something and it starts burning.
And, yes, I know DaleJr sort of fits in that category, but he has at least shown some promise.![]()
You mean 2x Daytona 500 Champion Michael Waltrip?

Look at the stats, 3 Daytona wins 1 rainout and 2 gimmees, 1 Dega win also a gimmee, no top tens and only 6 top 15s in the points. Dismal and pathetic, yes I mean this guy.
See this.
Do you mean 2010 Sprint Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Conway?This thread's ridiculous..... Buuuuut Kevin Conway, period.
*I know he no longer has a ride but he takes the cake.
How do you judge "worst" ? All drivers have some talent or they wouldn't be in the top echelons of racing.
There are 2 or 3 that I can think of that are racing because Daddy bought them a team ---- JW Townley, Paul Menard, and Tony George Jr. I don't know that these 3 will ever set the world on fire --- unless they hit something and it starts burning.

Jimmie, the whiner JohnsonHis ability to squeal like a pig has litterally infected the whole Hendricks group. Disgusts me.

You guys go suck a lemon.Jimmie Johnson.
I like how further up there Jimmie Johnson was mentioned a few times.
If I am not mistaken the thread I assume this thread is supposed to be about driving ability, not just a thread to bash drivers you don't like!
Mike Bliss has 0 wins, 1 top five and 7 top tens after 152 races. He has made 11 million running in cup since his first race.
Terrible, just terrible.
I would trade places with him in a minute.
That's funny. I thought that I heard Jeff Gordon bought him a Rum Mai Tai at the airport bar following their race at Chicagoland. I guess listening isn't my strong suit.I remember hearing reports of Jeff Gordon giving him a black eye at the airport following a Chicagoland race after Bliss wrecked him.
