Lee Roy, you know that I am not going to argue with David Pearson being #1 too. I think we are more informed fans (I guess that means were are smarter therefore experts) because the fans voted for Richard Petty as their #1 and David Pearson ended up 5th.
David Pearson also fared poorly in the greatest American driver fan poll that Racer magazine had recently. David was near the bottom of the list in those getting votes. Mario Andretti won, Foyt was second and Petty was third. In this poll, fans had to pick five drivers from a list of 25 nominees.
