Who is this Dale Earnhardt guy anyway ?

Over here in the UK, Sky Sports 2 will be showing live coverage of the
Daytona 500 next week. I've never watched a Nascar race before - being
the F1 nut that I am - but since I got my steering wheel last November
I've really got into Nascar (the game) and plan to watch the race.
Trouble is, I don't really know anything about the actual drivers.
Would any Nascar fans like to give me a brief rundown of who's hot and
who's Michael Andretti :) in Nascar ?

Thanks in advance

Hot=Earnhardt  Gordon  Marlin  Martin
I think Indycars are the only ones afflicted otherwise.

1995 WC (Winston Cup) champion = Jeff Gordon (#24)
2nd place went to Dale Earnhardt (#3), who has won the season championship
a record 7 times

Michael Andretti races indycars; his brother jeff races nascar (#37)

watch the Daytona 500 (sun 2/18) and you will be Quickly brought up to
speed on who's who. (you will see 43! drivers there)

NO!  That is his cousin John.

There will be 43 ONLY if someone needs to take a champion's provisional.
Unfortunately, Papyrus won't let you even have the minimum 40-car fields
at most NASCAR speedway races.

Actually, John, Michael's cousin, races NASCAR.

I know Michael Andretti races indycars - I love watching that too. It
was kind of a joke - who's hot / who's not (i.e. Michael Andretti) !

Didn't Jeff Andretti race indycars not so long ago ?

Jeff is Mario's nephew and therefore Michael's cousin

Jeff Andretti drove in the 1994 Indy 500 then the NASCAR race that was on
the same day (Daytona????). As far as I know, that was his last indycar
race

: >>Michael Andretti races indycars; his brother jeff races nascar (#37)
: Jeff is Mario's nephew and therefore Michael's cousin
Close, Jeff is Michael's brother and John is Aldo's son and Michael's cousin.
Other than that the information is correct.

Just in case anyone asks ... Bobby Unser is Al Unser's brother ... Al
Unser Jr is Bobby's nephew ... Bobby Unser Jr is Al Unser's nephew ...
Al Unser Jr is Bobby Unser Jr's Cousin ... Al Unser III is Al Unser's
grandson ... Jerry Unser was Bobby and Al's father ... Louis Unser was
Jerry's brother ... Jerry had four sons - Jerry Jr, Louis, Bobby and
Al ...

Hope that helps

Next time the Alisons.

Craig.
