If Johnson, Flock, Allison and Gordon were the subjects of that headline, it would be hard for sensible people to argue too much. But NASCAR fans aren’t all that sensible sometimes.

We’ve had some great arguments and read comments with tons of passion. The 64 Greatest NASCAR Drivers Tournament has been more than we had hoped for. Our On Pit Row version of March Madness has taken us into May and it’s been a blast, frankly.

I’ve read a few complaints from fans who thought that the tourney would have been more fair if we had seeded the drivers. Maybe that’s true. But we didn’t feel qualified to rate these 64 guys ourselves. And I doubt seriously if the outcome would have changed much. I’ll ask you this; if you were seeding this tournament, would Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt, Darrell Waltrip or David Pearson have gotten much argument as number one seeds?

Not from me they wouldn’t.

Only three great match ups to go. Get out the vote Earnhardt fans. Can anyone dethrone the King? Boogity, boogity or Silver Fox? The updated brackets are below.
