  1. No but it won't matter, if Kyle is really that good for the duration.


  2. The truth is....That Kyle can win 250 races 10 championships and he will still never be more popular than Jr. There's no doubt he is a gifted driver and can be compared to Dale Sr. ON THE TRACK...However off the track, he comes off as an immature, dorky, brat, which means he's no manly man or appealing to the ladies. I'm sure he'll have a good following but nothing compared to the Jr. Nation. In short He's twice the Driver that Jr. is but only half the man Jr. is....

  3. yes wait till this years pole results are released

  4. No JR Nation is loyal to Dale thru everything so JR will always be the most popular as long as he is driving , but with kyle at 23 and Jr 33 even though Kyle will never be the most popular he will win more races and championships than JR. and winning will always be more important than a popularity contest anyway

  5. I don't think anyone can be as popular as Dale Jr. He's got a set of attributes that are just about unbeatable. He's down to earth, talented, naturally charming and funny, humble, easy on the eyes, a fan of racing and NASCAR history, and an Earnhardt.  The guy is perfect. ;-)

  6. No one will ever be more popular than Dale Jr. I think Jr. Nation has made that pretty clear.

  7. do bear's pooh in thw woods....?   j/k

    yea i think kyle will one day be the most popular driver

  8. I can honestly say as Kyle's fan, that it wouldn't matter to me one bit if he does or doesn't.

  9. Maybe...

    Stranger things have happened!

  10. if you count negative attention as well as positive attention, he's got that won hands down - most of junior nation (and lots of other people) hate him, and his own fans really love him (even the bandwagoners love him - for now).  that's a lot of attention.

    if you consider popularity as how many words/column inches/"minutes on tv" a driver has, there has been more written about him, more tv coverage (during the races and after), and more commentary on rowdy this year than probably everybody else combined.

    will he ever be more "popular" in terms positive energy/adoration - it's possible if he matures properly, but we won't know if that will happen till long after junior has decided to retire.

  11. Not unless he does a lot of changing or PR work resulting in that appearance.

  12. I doubt it

  13. He sure will. By that time people will regret doubting him.

  14. Maybe when Dale Jr retires!! No but seriously maybe one day who knows!!

  15. it really doesn't matter to me. if he never becomes that popular, i'm not gonna like him any less.

  16. Yes!

  17. I doubt it. How a person carries themselves is very noticeable by the public.

    It really depends on how he handles himself in times of trial. If he was to keep on winning and keep his nose clean, watch how he lashes out,,, then he could stand a good chance on down the road.

    Right now there is no chance.

  18. Only way he would be more popular than Jr is if it was discovered he was a long lost son of the original Dale Earnhardt himself.
