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 NASCAR.com Senior Writer Raygan Swan.

Born: April 22, 1977
Birthplace: Indianapolis
Current residence: Indianapolis

In her words:

"I thought that with the increasingly female fan base NASCAR was apparently enjoying, NASCAR.com might benefit from some estrogen-laced content. More than that, I found the sport of NASCAR to be like covering a city. There are so many different beats: police and safety, governing bodies, lifestyles, family and values and even food and drink. You never run out of interesting things to reveal about NASCAR and the people within. And I’m always pleasantly surprised to find that readers respond more when I write about topics like parenting on pit road and Bandelero cars as opposed to bump stops or progressive banking.”
