NASCAR Hall of Fame Class of 2013

I almost cried seeing that BP didn't get in. He was one of the nicest guys ever to step foot in a garage, not to mention 1973 champion, 1975 Daytona 500 winner, with 21 wins, 20 poles, and 0 DNQ's after running 526 races over 21 years.

I think there are far more accomplished people who rightfully belong in the HOF over Rusty at this time.

They'll keep doing this year after year though because they want someone "recent" to attract people.

You got that right mate!
They completely neglected the man who bankrolled the sport right from the start. He was also the man who was the 'super team' owner, long before teams were really thought of. Raymond Parks deserved to be in the 5 as much, if not more than anyone.
Red Byron was also deserving....just on being the sports first champion. The man who came up with the acronym NASCAR (Red Vogt) wasn't even nominated....i just don't get it.
I can only guess that NASCAR don't want the roots of the sport to be widely known, for fear of upsetting the politically correct brigade.
