One of tens of thousands of non-notable local racecar drivers who didn't even finish high in the season points at his local track. Not a NASCAR nationally-known driver like the article leads you to believe, but instead is a driver at a local NASCAR-sanctioned racetrack. COI article written by racing team representative, and they contested the earlier prod. Royalbroil 04:31, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong delete- if auto racing is a sport (as NASCAR would suggest), then he fails WP:ATHLETE. Otherwise he just plain fails WP:N. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 09:48, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Above, I meant that the subject fails both WP:ATHLETE and WP:N, with a caveat in the event that racecar drivers are generally not considered eligible for WP:ATHLETE. Sorry if anybody took offense. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 05:48, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
