Jr is close at 74th.

Current

Jeff Gordon
Tony Stewart
Jimmie Jonhnson
Matt Kenseth
Kurt Busch

Jr at a distant 15th

What kind of fool would even mention Jr? Take off the blinders. He’s just not good.

Excellent additonal choices John.

Petty
Pearson
Earnhardt

Putting Junior in this list is just blasphemous. There are Soooo many more drivers past and present who are or were better than Junior. He doesn’t even make the top 20.

(Mark Martin, Darrell Waltrip, Bill Elliot, Tony Stewart, Jimmy Johnson, Matt Kenseth, Davey Allison, Ernie Irvin, Rusty Wallace, Alan Kulwickie, Cale Yarborough, Terry and Bobby LaBontie, Harry Gant, Dale Jarrett, and so many more drivers can be put on this list before Junior’s name comes close to appearing.)

NOW: J. Gordon, Stewart, Johnson, Edwards, and Kyle Buch eeks out a list of guys who come close.

THEN: DE Sr., The King, The Silver Fox, DW, and Bobby Allison with apologies to Fireball Roberts, Joe Weatherly, and Davey Allison who died too young. That comment also goes for Earnhardt too.
