Who does kyle busch think is the best driver in nascar?

Question

did anyone see kyle on either "entertainment tonight" or "nascar now" yesterday? incredible - he wasn't arrogant or belligerent towards the fans or anything. on nascar now he was asked all sorts of questions about being labeled a superstar and other "softball" questions you'd think he'd knock right out of the park with arrogance, but he didn't.

commentators (including rusty wallace) were somewhat shocked by how "humble" and "mature" he was. of course, his real fans knew this all along...

they even asked if he thought he was the best driver out there right now, and he answered thoughtfully. he said to be "the best driver" takes far more than just one season, and then he named who he thought was the best driver and why, and added three more drivers as being in the same class.

anyone care to guess who he thought was the best and why? and who he named as the other three drivers? hint: he didn't name himself.

Answer 1

Uggh..I missed them both!!

That just sucks..(youtube, here I come)

I have heard that most of the people who know him, (really know him) have said that he's nothing like what he's portrayed, and that it seems odd to them that the "class clown" ended up the villian

Gordon would be my guess..

Answer 2

Of course Kyle is going to be well-behaved and humble right now. He's carrying the title of "most hated in NASCAR" and he doesn't want to give people any more reason to continue to pin that on him.

Though I didn't see any of the interviews, I'm willing to lay money he named Dale Jr. as one of the best. I wouldn't argue that anyway, but due to recent events it unfortunately carries a certain amount of emptiness to it.

I'm sure Kyle isn't very arrogant anyway, but right now he's going to be extra careful in what he says and does for PR purposes. I don't put much weight in the interviews he does at the moment as being 100% genuine.

Answer 3

He thinks Jimmie Johnson is the best with Jeff Gordon,Tony Stewart, and Carl Edwards also being some top drivers...I must say I have to agree with him.

Answer 4

Who really cares, it's just his opinion anyway, it's not as if he is an authority on the topic. There are many great drivers out there and everybody gets their day in the spotlight.

Answer 5

I did not see the interview but would guess that he said Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson and Tony Stewart.  Those are the only current drivers with multiple Cup Series Championships and that win races every year.  

3 STR8 N 08!!!

Answer 6

You can spin Kyle anyway you want but it doesnt change the fact that many many fans are going to loathe him.  And he's given us plenty of reasons to over the years.  I'm sure you dislike someone I do like.  You just pull for your drivers and I'll pull for mine.  You will never be able to talk me into liking anyone I dont like.

Answer 7

don't really particularly care if he was nice that day,  that was only one day out of how many.  He will still come out on Saturday night and race like a maniac,but hopefully this year it will be his brother that turns hin around.  he shouldn't name himself as the best driver cause he isn't at least he got that one right.  As for the three he probably chose Stewart,maybe Gordon, and Jimmie Johnson.

Answer 8

jeff gordon.

Answer 9

He is certainly the best young driver I have ever seen, but he still tries to put the car in places where it won't go. When he learns a little more discipline, he will be top tier. He and Carl Edwards have been the class of the field this year. I think the greatest active driver is Jeff Gordon. My guess to the best drivers would be Jimmie Johnson, Carl Edwards, and Tony Stewart. Please let us know.

Answer 10

He is by far the best right now!!!

Answer 11

I am going to guess Dale Earnhardt, and Richard Petty, they both have the most Champions with 7.

As for the other one I do not know, I missed this. But I will through it out there and see if I miss or hit, of course all these are guesses. The other guy I will say Jeff Gordon. A 4 time Champ, and 80+ wins.

Answer 12

Go Kyle !!

He can act arrogant because he can back it up!

His fans like the way he acts  hes got a personalty !

Unlike Jr
