Question:

NASCAR fans, do you have a home state driver but cheer on Junior or another not from your home town?

by | earlier

Junior Nation here, even though I have the perfect opportunity to fall in with our Glory Boy Kyle Busch...I don't bash Bush or even question why others prefer him to my favorites as racing is about skill, personalities and what we think we know like any other sport. Doesn't seem to prevent me from waiting for the next race or being content with the results even if Junior had a bad day as long as one of my other choices place in top five/ten. You?

I'm from Illinois, there is no driver from here in NASCAR, so I support Denny Hamlin, and also to an extent, Carl Edwards, who's from nearby Missouri.

I'm from Indy and root for the Busch brothers, Jr., Mark Martin, and a few others but not Jeff Gordon or Tony Stewart both from Indiana. I don't dislike them, I just have my favorites

I was raised in VA near Stuart VA to be exact....live in NC now. All of my buddies in school were #21 fans...and now most of them are Sadler fans. ME, I have always and will always pull for the #43. Currently I pull for Bobby Labonte....but I am more loyal to the car than I am the driver.

Of course, Carl Edwards is my local driver... but my favorite driver is Matt Kenseth. I still like to see Carl win, though :)

Yes Dale Jr is from my home state NC but i now live in SC, but like him so are others like Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon that i pull for also live now in NC, I do not believe in bashing other Fans or their drivers..because, I was a die hard Dale Sr Fan and after he passed, I

sat down and made a list of 13 that i pull for so i will not or care not to bash/hate on others, we are FANS!

and Yes I am a Nation Card Carrier as well as Rowdy's World Card Carrier and 11 others to boot!

my home state (actually home city) driver would be Sam Hornish Jr.

& i try to cheer for him as much as possible...and hopefully one day he'll be really good...but as of now..he's not doing too bad for being a rookie!

but of course..my all time favorite driver is Jimmie Johnson. & i also like Carl Edwards, Rowdy, Dale Jr, Kasey Kahne, & David Ragan.

My homestate drivers are Terry and Bobby Labonte. I like Terry when he was fulltime in cup and I still have a spot for Bobby too. My favorite driver is from Nevada (Kurt Busch). Before that it was Missouri and Rusty Wallace.

Just about everybody down here in Georgia was a Bill Elliott fan. I like the southern drivers but there aren't many of them left. I'm a Kevin Harvick fan and he's from California!

The closest driver hometowns are Tony Stewart who is from Rushville, Indiana and Sam Hornish Jr. from Defiance, Ohio.

Though my main driver Jeff Gordon was born in California, he grew up in Pittsboro, Indiana. And he even raced a few of our local tracks growing up. Lawrenceburg Speedway, Chilicothe, etc..

Only when Sterling Marlin is in the race do I have a home driver. And yes I will yell for him, he's a Tennessee boy, I have to.

My favorite is Carl Edwards, so I'm really not that far from home by pulling for him since St Louis is only about 5 hours away.

The last cup driver from Alabama was Davey Allison (Neil Bonnett and Hut Stricklin) but Davey was the last great from Alabama I pulled for.

I cheer on Tony Stewart (Who is a fan of Red Farmer,a mentor to dozens of drivers).

Hope Cale Gale from Mobile can get a chance.

Yes, I'm a member of Jr Nation (non-can throwing clan) , and Truex is not only from my home state, but live the next town down from me and went to the same high school. My Dale Jr shelf is also my Martin Truex shelf as well.

JJ Yeley is from Arizona, and so is Michael Mcdowell but I'm not a fan of either. I like Jr. Gordon and McMurray. I wouldn't mind if JJ or Michael won i just don't root for them.

Well I'm from Florida.

I go for David Ragan and Carl Edwards and they're from Georgia and Missouri. I honestly don't even know who's from Florida.

I don't have a home state driver. I'm from Massachusetts, I live in Utah, there's no driver from either.

Kyle's from Vegas and that's only a 6 hour drive from here, but that had nothing to do with why I picked him.
