Most over rated dirt racer?

[Barbecueboy]

Racing has become a rich mans sport or my parents got deep pockets sport. Kyle Bronson, Mason Ziegler, and honestly today the most overated driver at least in dirt on dirt ranking is Ricky Weiss by a mile.

We parked near them ( Weiss)at east bay a while back ( by the blue building near the pit entry) and after the week was over those guys left a pile of wrecked sheet metal and parts and pieces taller than my truck........he's gotten a lot better since those days, but I see what you mean on the DOD rankings.....they like him a lot.

This will rub some the wrong way, but I don't get all the hype on Overton or mcintosh....both good drivers but just don't get all the chatter about how good they really are.

Reading a lot of comments it really depends on who ya like or dislike.

ME ...lol... but its not fair to put chuck hummer in this thread , tell me who has over rated him ? he!! , all i ever heard is people come on here and berate him , not over rate........

[In The Gas]

Brandon Kinzer...LOL
The guy shows up in the nicest rig and car looks like it just came from a show room floor but he’s not worth a (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word). Some people have more money than sense.

[Bradley]

I don't know about over rated but for the money Brandon Kinzer's family has, I always think he has a lot better equipment then what he has in results. Now I only see him run at the Dream and at the World 100, so maybe I am wrong.

[Bradley]

In The Gas....... we was typing about Kinzer at the same time..... lmao

Based 100% on $$ doled out to fund these drivers vs. on track results, there's 3 clear-cut choices.

Brent Larson
Rick Eckert
Steve Francis

Honorable Mention to Bronson and young Moyer

[Kromulous]

All of them, EXCEPT the GOAT, Mr Bloomquist !!

LOL had to do it...

[PRCKartRacer9]

how do you put Larson in the same category as Eckert and Francis? Larson has never won hot laps. Eckert has nothing to prove. Francis is a shoe in HOF

[dirt crow]

Eckert and Francis. Multiple Crown jewel wins. Overrated? Bull butter.

Kyle Larson

G R Smith.
Blake Spencer

Babb? Francis? That’s crazy not fair. It’s NOT who you don’t like...it’s WHO is over rated. People and media swoon over, but their record doesn’t warrant it. That kind of deal.

G R Smith.Blake Spencer

I don’t think anybody ever said Blake was good lol. Just somebody with money to blow let’s him have some fun. But I don’t see how running last every night could be fun

kyle bronson

Track slicks off and he’s an anchor.

Bronson and Zeigler I’d agree with. Weiss has a crown jewel win and has been consistently up front everywhere this year. He’s gotten (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) good as a driver, and is not overrated.

[ZERO25]

Im 100% sure in saying, no one has had more money spent on their racing exploits than Blake Spencer, and ZERO results to show for it!

However, he's not overrated, more like under-achiever, grossly!

Blake Spencer’s $$ comes from his girlfriends car dealership in St. Augustine, Florida-Bozard Ford. I certainly hope he is having fun doing what he is doing-but man!
Don’t think Tyler Red(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) qualifies since he didn’t have many years on dirt.
Lastly- Kinzer has definitely spent the $$ thru the years. He still has his 2 long time crew members-Freddie Smith&Wendell Wallace’s ex crew chiefs. Brandon only races a handful of times each year now. Heavy involved in raising his son and with the Will Kinser Foundation for Autism. He had a very life changing experience when Will was born. The Kinser Family & crew mainly support Shane-Dale McDowell now.
I guess my vote would be a toss up between Bronson & MoyerJr.
