[edit] Neutrality

Am I loopy, or does this article read as a little biased? --D-Day^{(Wouldn't you like to be a pepper too?, on WHEELS?!}) 00:05, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

It has been biased in the past, and could use a rewrite. User:Modor

[edit] Controversy

Until further notice, I have removed the "controversy" section from the article. If there is a way we can make that notable, then we can include it. --D-Day ^{I'm all ears How can I improve?} 21:38, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Morgan Today

I'm not questioning Morgan's driving merits; in the early 1990s he was a really great driver. Still, should some mention of Morgan being considered nothing more than a field filler who enters races to claim the last place first be made? Consider that from 2002 untill today Morgan has started 32 cup races, 22 busch races, and 31 truck series races. Yet he has finished only 4 of these 85 races (4%). He has completed 100 laps or more in only 16 of these races. Also, didn't he get busted by Nascar a couple years back for scuffing tires for another team during a race?

I don't remember hearing about the incicent with another team but there is some fancruft in the page I will be removing --Boss Big (talk) 02:47, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Earnhardt Jr.'s Uncle

Shepherd's sister Barbara is Dale Jr.'s mother. Timothy Horrigan (talk) 00:08, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Older driver

He's not the oldest driver to run in the Nationwide series or any other national Nascar series... James Hylton ran a Busch race at the age of 71. But is he in fact the oldest to run a full schedule? Timothy Horrigan (talk) 00:08, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
