Sports Illustrated asked a panel of 40 prominent NASCAR insiders who they thought were the greatest NASCAR drivers of the century, here are the results.
1) David Pearson
2) Dale Earnhardt
3) Richard Petty
4) Bobby Allison
5) Jeff Gordon
6) Cale Yarborough
7) Fireball Roberts
8) Junior Johnson
9) Darrell Waltrip
10) Herb Thomas
The panel consisted of current and past drivers, team owners, writers, track owners, TV commentators/analysts.
Well, what do you all think?
Here is what I think:
1) I think Richard Petty should at least be 2nd. Come on, he is "The King."
2) I wouldn't put Jeff Gordon ahead of Cale Yarborough and Fireball Roberts yet.
