Who are NASCAR’s most beautiful people?
The Sporting News asked that question of readers, fans and those who cover the sport, and the results weren’t limited by traditional definitions of beauty. The editors considered fan favorites and sponsor favorites and gave them points, and they also awarded points to “those were were making waves in the sport.”
The results of this non-traditional approach are now out with the publication of NASCAR’s 50 Most Beautiful People. The special edition is now available on newsstands and at the online store at www.streetandsmiths.com.
SceneDaily is running the list, with one person from the top 50 to be featured each day. Only the top selection was ranked, with the rest following in a random order that allows fans to decide who should be ranked where.
Today's installment features Kyle Petty, former NASCAR Sprint Cup driver, current TNT race analyst and co-founder of Victory Junction Gang Camp.
Born: June 2, 1960
Birthplace: Randleman, N.C.
Current residence: Trinity, N.C.
In his words: "It’s a funny sport. We go out on a track and beat each other’s heads against a wall. But when it comes to helping other people, [the drivers] all band together."
