As for Rowdy Busch, Tons of guys like him that are heros that consider second to be the first looser He's there to win every night. Considers the more he races the sharper he stays and Nascar limits races so he can't stay sharp.
Hate him or Love to hate him. Rowdy is a racer's racer.
Earnhardt was a lot smarter than Rowdy, he coveted the intimidator image on track, but did not go out of his way to act like Barry Bonds with media and fans off track. Earnhardt had the ability to make people madder than he!! but come up later and put his arm around them of give them a hug and diffuse (for the most part) the situation.
