I've been a open wheel fan ALL my life and I'll have to say Montoya. He's has the attitude that fits perfect for NASCAR... BASICLLY.. I DON"T GIVE A F**

I have to disagree with you Mike. I think Paul Tracy would not be far behind.

yeah I agree, his experience will help him. But don't sleep on JOCK...he's been a sudden star in everthing he has ever driven and his skills are first rate.

you forgot to put in "none"

Sorry but I don't like any of them. I think teams using them are lazy.

I also know it's just to happen more. NASCAR has already started a down turn IMO, and with the COT and other things will just start to snow ball more.

I think in time, Dario will be a great driver and might surpass the others. Yes, he's just getting started this year, but with some time and laps under his belt, he'll be a contender. He's probably the smartest of the group and smart guys know when to take the risks and when not to....which adds up to consistency and keeping your car in one piece, to be around at the finish.

I agree, you will see some other form of American racing rise in the next few years I would guess. I think Nascar's rating will slowly just die down for the same reasons F1 and IRL dont do well here. Just a guess.

Yeah I think Dario might end up being pretty good. Just needs some seat time.
