Part 2: As to what it would take to drive in NASCAR, here is just something for starters:

The first thing is that it is never too early to start. All of the drivers you see on TV every week, no matter the type of cars, started out young (some as early as 4 years old) at their local race track or in karts. The hard part is to prove that you have some ability there, prove yourself there and you'll quickly find yourself moving up through the ranks. Keep it up and you'll find yourself catching the eye of a big name car owner.

The First Step

Go to your local race track (dirt or asphalt doesn't matter) and buy a pit pass if possible. Then go in and strike up a conversation with someone. Drivers, crew members and officials are all great resources with different perspectives on what it takes to get started at that track. As long as they don't have pressing work to do most people will be more than happy to talk to you, but please be courteous.

Ask if they have a minimum age. Many tracks' age limit is lower than the state driving age. If your child is too young to race at that track then someone will probably direct you to a local karting association.

There are definitely no "gimmies" here. Hard work, practice, natural skill, luck and money all play a roll in your ability to catch a break.

Becoming a NASCAR driver is not just about your raw racing talent. There are a number of other factors that will determine whether or not you will ever see a green flag in the NASCAR Sprint Cup series.

Physical Characteristics

Racing at it's highest level is a physically demanding sport. 500 miles with a 120 degree track temperature can be brutal. A regular exercise program will improve your stamina and help you stay sharp over the course of a long hot race.

Also, a slim and toned driver will have an advantage over one that's heavier. In racing every pound counts and that includes the driver as well as the race car.

Get A Good Education

In NASCAR sponsors are the true key to success. You need every possible advantage in order to represent the sponsors well. A good education gives you the ability to speak well in front of the camera.

A racer represents his sponsor everywhere he goes. If you want a quality ride then you need the sponsors' money. Before they will write a check the sponsor needs to believe that you will represent them well.

In the early days of NASCAR you could drop out of school and be successful, with today's high-tech race cars and the ever increasing business side of the sport a high school education is the bare minimum. 1992 Winston Cup Champ Alan Kulwicki was the first ever to have a college degree, now it's becoming more and more common as drivers are realizing the importance of a good education.

Go For It!

Getting all the way to Sprint Cup is hard work. If you want to do it there is no "little bit." You've got to give it your all, all the time. If you make it you can be a legend, but if you don't make it you'll still have a bunch of fun and learn a lot along the way.

Good luck! And don't forget me when you become rich and famous.

Answer 13

My absolute favorite is Matt Kenseth.

I also like Tony Stewart, Kyle Busch, and Clint Bowyer.

Answer 14

1. Jeff Gordon

2. Dale Jr

3. Jimmie Johnson

4. Tony Stewart

And to get into nascar i think that you have to start racing go karts when you are younger, then move up to dirt track, you have to be smart, get a education and be an engineer or something so you know how to work on cars. Start out racing in ARCA, and then slowly move up to craftsman truck series, nationwide series, and you have to be really good to get to the Sprint cup seires, only a few make it up to the Sprint cup.

But i think that drivers with a famous father or relative like Kyle Petty get a free pass up to the Sprint cup series, just because they have a famous name doesn't mean that they are going to be good, you have to work your have up.

Answer 15

Jr. and Smoke are my faves.

Thebestanswer has an excellent answer to your second request.

Is the spell checker broken on your computer?  Or have you just not gone that far in school yet?  ie:  spelling, punctuation, etc.

Go Jr.>>>>

Answer 16

jr and harvick

Answer 17

Anyone except KYLE (if you can't beat 'em crash 'em) BUSCH

Answer 18

I'd go with Kasey Kahne and anybody not named Tony Stewart.  Stewart's a black mark on the sport with his bad temper and poor behavior.  Kasey always acts with class and dignity.

Answer 24

Elloitt Sadler and, Kyle Bush.

Elliott, is just real down to earth and, laid back.

Kyle, I didn't really care for at first but, I think that He has shown a real sense of humor in the way that He deals with some of the fans booing Him due to His new success.

taking a bow, after wins.
