Now I wouldn't go as far as saying they are some of the best athletes, lets not kid ourselves. Are they in top shape? Of course, NASCAR races can take a lot out of a person. But how far would you have to stretch the definition of athlete to put them as some of the best?

What can Jeff Gordon do better athelticly than i can? Could he beat me in basketball, baseball, hockey, tennis or swimming? Probably not. All of which take more athletism (sp) than NASCAR. NASCAR drivers have endurance and physical stregnth... but you realize you don't even need legs to be a driver?
