Who's going to be your favorite NASCAR driver this year? You can't wait to see who's winning. You got to pick 'em up front. Is it someone you've followed for years or with the new teams and moves do you have a new favorite for '08?

I like Kevin Harvick. He's been my favorite for a while. Since Dale Jr. has made the move to Hendrick, I'll be pulling for him. I have a 4 year old that I really didn't want wearing Budweiser clothes, but we can pull for Jr. now and wear Amp Stuff...

Earnhardt will always be my favorite.

Of the active drivers, I've been a Junior fan for quite a while, but really get sick of all the media crap surrounding him and the Hollywood look that NASCAR now has. Clint Bowyer is probably my favorite. Big reason is he used to race dirt modifieds. Also like Carl Edwards (same reason) and Matt Kenseth, because he's a Wisconsin driver. Jimmie Johnson used to race at our dirt track (off-road trucks) too, so you gotta like that.

My favorite to win the championship in 2008...three-peat for Jimmie Johnson. No one, not Jeff Gordon, not Tony Stewart...no one can perform in crunch time like JJ can. He went from a immature whiner that blamed everyone else for his wrecks in 2005 to the best driver in NASCAR in 2006 and 2007. Dale Jr going to Hendrick will help him get to the Chase. But, and I know a few will agree with me, he will NEVER win a championship with Tony Eury Jr as crew cheif. Never. I bet if you put Dale Jr and Chad Knaus (as much as I don't like him) together, they'd win a championship in 3 years. ;)

I'm still a Harvick fan...and wouldn't jump off his band wagon if he went to Toyota....LOL.

Just curious to see how the Toyota's do this year with some good drivers and even more curious to see if Jr. can do something in a Hendrick car.

DEI has good equipment (Truex proved that) and Jr. didn't do anything with that. I honestly think he'll do better just because of the switch and not have that whole DEI ownership thing on his mind. We'll see!
