Is This A NASCAR Driver Or Did I Just Make It Up?

NASCAR Quiz: Real Name Or Fake?

Jimmie Johnson has won 83 NASCAR Cup Series races. He is an 7-time Cup Series Champion and won five straight.

Real

He has not won a NASCAR Cup Series race, but over his career, has earned more than $15M. (This post was written before his first big win at Daytona on Sunday.)

Bobby Labonte won it all in 2000, and this retired driver won 21 Series races. Also, a NASCAR Hall-of-Famer.

If Ernie Ellis were a real person, he'd be the grizzled veteran. He has been in the business for too long and has a love-hate relationship with racing.

Fake

Truex Jr. has won 27 races and has sat atop the poll 19 times. Last season, he had 23 top-10 finishes.

Austin Carson sounds like the young, up-and-coming punk driver. You wreck him, his father (billionaire ex-driver) Earl Carson will come for everything you own.  
A.C. is a real piece of work...you know, if he were real.

The defending champion, Chase Elliot looks to repeat after a five-win season in a pandemic year.

Arguably the greatest racer of all-time, Petty won seven championships.

Cole Custer won a single race last year, but finished ranked 16th overall in a 36-race season.

We all know a Tony Wade. A friendly face to all the drivers. He always tries to be the peacekeeper but avoids altercations altogether. However, Tony does not exist.

If Roscoe existed, he would walk out of press conferences without warning and strut like Danny Zuko from _Grease_.   
He'd drive the No. 1 car, because he is...the one and only.

"The Bad Boy of Racing"  
Roscoe Berry Sr.

Shake and bake! Cal was John C. Reilly's character in _Talladega Nights_. I was hoping to fool someone who recognized the name but hasn't seen the movie.

In a world where this man exists, Sonny Pittman has done advertisements for multiple steak houses and a of couple rib joints.
He has never won a race, but his comedic personality gets him over with fans.

Rusty Wallace won 55 races over his long career from 1980 to 2005. He also won the championship '89.

Wallace has yet to win a Cup Series Race, but is one of the brighter young stars heading into his fourth season.

Betty Charlotte is what I had imagined an old school racer, but it turns out there was actually a woman named Sara Christian who competed in the inaugural race at Charlotte Speedway.

Forget RDJ, RDW puts the "W" in his nickname. As sure as his name is Roy Dale White, he does what he has to to finish in the top-20.

If he existed, Casey Horn would grow up to change his name to "Kasey." He races to prove his parents wrong that he can and will drive faster than 55 mph.

If he existed, Lee Lee Squared would be that guy who never comes in first and blames everyone else around him. That's so Lee.

Dick Trickle never won a NASCAR Series race, but he competed over _**FOUR**_ decades. He passed away in 2013.

You were all over the place out there and wrecked.

White Flag!

Is This A NASCAR Driver Or Did I Just Make It Up?

Before you take this quiz, remember, it could be as little as five real names or as many as fifteen. Also, I do not write my own NASCAR fan-fiction, but I tried my best for the fake names.
