Who is your favorite Nascar Busch Series Driver?
I find myself fond of J.J. Yeley. He drives the #18 Vigoro Chevrolet. He is actually a rookie this year in the Nextel Cup Series also but he has not won my confidence racing with the veteran competition in the Cup Series.
It's hard to get attached to drivers in the Busch series seeing how most have an eye on the Nextel Cup series. You also have so many Nextel cup drivers competiting the in the "minor league" series, that the young drivers have virtually no chance.
As a personality, I love Kenny Wallace (Rusty Wallace's little brother) even though he has not had the results to stay as competitive as I would like. But he's a likable character. He gives the greatest interviews. He's currently hosting the RaceDay show on the Speed Channel while competiting in the Busch seriers and is great in front of the camera.
I also root for Paul Tracy when he runs in the Busch series. He is currently running a limited schedule just to get his feet wet in stock cars. He is a former champion in the CART series and I have always loved his style in that series. He's either going to wreck or win. I'm hoping he'll find the patience required to run stock cars and breakthrough to the Nextel cup. But then who will I root for, Jeff Gordon or Paul Tracy?
