People often ask the question "who would b on ur Rushmore of sprintcar racing?" My question goes in a different direction . U can insert any driver name in the spot that I use this guys name if u want . My question is .... Why is Danny Smith never on anyone's list for Rushmore?" He's not on mine but I think he should b considered. Maybe we need to add another head on this big rock ?

It's so hard to compare drivers from different eras, if I was pressed I would have to say:

Steve Kinser
Dick Gaines
AJ Foyt
Sammy Swindell

Jerry

Mt.Rushmore is an iconic tribute to greatness and the greatest spectacle in racing is The Indianapolis 500....so..mine will include the 3 men that won The 500 4 times (AJ, Big Al, and "THE Rocket"): with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway logo being the 4th.

No real reason other than my own familiarity w/ these guys and my perception of them being good shoes but not an automatic in conversation about the greatest of greats.

My "what about this guy" Rushmore is: Kerry Norris, Frankie Kerr, Steve Butler, Ricky Hood.
