Which open wheeler will have most success?

They're have been some very good NASCAR drivers to come from open wheel racing. Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, and Mario Andretti to name a few. Lots of open wheelers are coming over now. Like Juan Pablo Montoya, Sam Hornish Jr., Dario Franchetti, and Jacques Villenueve. So which one of those 4 will have the most success.

You are leaving one out, Scott Speed could be the sleeper of this group.
He is young and been competitive at every level he has run. He also finished 7th at the ARCA race in Talledega which was the first time he had ever raced a stock car. Watch out for him, he is the real deal!

Re: Which open wheeler will have most success?

I selected JPM just because he has a leg up on the others - including Scott Speed, who will run ARCA not NASCAR next year from my understanding - having been through the Cup schedule this season. I am really fascinated and intrigued to see how good Villeneuve will become because if his start at Talladega's an indication of things to come, then HE might end up more successful than all the rest! Montoya's been impressing me all season and Villeneuve surely got off on the right foot at 'Dega!

Re: Which open wheeler will have most success?

I believe if Sam would get off his arse and put his head into it he'd be very very special. I think all of his problems at the moment are because he isn't giving it 100%. He needs to make up his damn mind. Nascar or IRL. I honestly don't know what he see in the IRL right now. He has conquered it. I think if he just committed to Nascar and gave it is all physically and most importantly mentally he go out there and run up front.

Re: Which open wheeler will have most success?

Jacques impressed me because he chose to not contest his 1st race, but to spend it learning. Juablo may have some earlier success, but my money is on the guy who studies the tracks and his competitors.

I like Dario, he better at ovals than JPM, better at road crosses than Hornish. I like Dario
