Can Jimmie Johnson Win Four Consecutive Championships

Winning back-to-back championships is a rare feat in NASCAR these days. Many fans and analysts perceived three consecutive championships in today’s NASCAR as virtually impossible to accomplish. Cale Yarborough won three championships in a row in 1976, 1977, and 1978. Even prior to his championship seasons, he was winning, and winning often. How would a fourth consecutive championship affect the sport of NASCAR?
 

NASCAR fans spend too much time complaining.

It has been a week filled with complaining from the NASCAR fans that seem to thrive off negativity. The track does have lights and they could have raced until 2 am if they needed to, but NASCAR officials felt the need to call off the race. Basically, the fans claim that NASCAR favors Earnhardt Jr because of who he is, and because of his last name. They quickly forgot about the previous two pit road penalties that NASCAR levied to Earnhardt Jr and the No. 88 team. The rule is in effect to protect the top 35 teams and sponsors.
 

Jimmie Johnson Still NASCAR�s Top Driver

Jimmie Johnson does not receive the media attention that other drivers such as Dale Earnhardt Jr, Tony Stewart, or even Jeff Gordon demand. Johnson is regarded as one of the good guys. Having a nice guy image does not take away on track achievements. Johnson is still NASCAR’s top driver at the moment. Jimmie Johnson is not the only nice guy in NASCAR that is sometimes disregarded. Kenseth opened the 2009 NASCAR Sprint Cup season with wins at Daytona and California, yet he is not ‘The Story’ in NASCAR.
 

Return of the Driver/Owners

As the sport grew, drivers continued to race their own cars; however, drivers began to accept rides with established teams owned by former drivers or businessmen. Michael Waltrip Racing became one of Toyota’s flagship teams. That is rare in driver/owner situations, but Waltrip’s no ordinary driver. Tony Stewart, the two-time champion, joined the ranks of driver/owners. He acquired fifty percent ownership in what is now Stewart Haas Racing, formerly Haas CNC Racing. Harvick also owns a Camping World Truck Series team.
 

Sponsors Tough to Find for Earnhardt Ganassi and Yates

The lack of sponsorship for numerous teams in the Sprint Cup garage is further proof that NASCAR is not immune to the economic recession. Some of NASCAR’s top organizations are experiencing sponsorship issues. In the 1990’s and even early 2000’s, sponsoring a NASCAR team was actually a bargain. Proctor and Gamble and its Tide brand sponsored a NASCAR team from 1987 to 2005 before pulling out. After Chip Ganassi Racing merged with Dale Earnhardt Inc., they had hoped to field four full-time teams. The team is trying to remain optimistic.
