Who do you respect?
With all the talk of who we don't like lately, I decided to touch on a different topic, one not touched on much.
Which current NASCAR driver do you respect the most? And what has he done on the track/off the track to get that respect?
My choice would probably be Jeff Burton. On the track he will race hard, but will not wreck someone out for a win. Some may think that's a bad thing, but you're not really going to gain the respect of the other drivers or their fans if you just punt them out of your way to win. Off the track, I don't ever remember hearing him bad mouth anyone. Not to say he hasn't gotten angry at other drivers, but I don't remember hearing him slam anyone.
Your thoughts?

Has to be Smoke for his love of the sport and giving to others and to not forget his roots in the sport. True he can be a %%%^ but that sets him apart from the others on and off the track.
