Jim,
You are right about one thing..and that is that none will ever compare to Rex White because there really is not much to compare! Yes, he did win the 1960 Winston Cup Championship and then what...absolutely nothing. Considering that he was racing with competitors such as "The King" Richard Petty I don't see how you can say that he is the greatest next to Richard petty's accomplishments in this SPORT! Now, as far as back in the day when people pulled for the car manufacturer and not the driver, it still happens just not as often as it used to! My husband is one of those who pulls for the manufacturer. He is a Dale Jarrett fan and with all the talk of him possibly switching over to a Toyota, my husband is already off with his head for betraying Ford! You may not believe that NASCAR is a sport but I know that I sure as heck couldn't take on the physical and mental demands that it requires to ride 500 miles around a track! Call me crazy but I think you have to be in good shape to be successful at this sport!
