About This Quiz

Put the pedal to the metal!

To the uninformed, NASCAR may seem like not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things; however, it is actually the complete opposite! Growing out of the bootlegging days in the Deep South, the NASCAR of today had its modest start in the 1940s, and through hard work, dedication and a whole lot of promotion, it has become the massive enterprise that it is today. In fact, there are over 1,000 NASCAR races held each year; and this is not just in the United States. NASCAR has expanded to have events and races in Canada, Europe, Japan, and Mexico! However, there is no denying that the majority of NASCAR's popularity is at home in the United States, with races being held in at least 39 of the 50 states.

There have been so many professional stock car drivers throughout the years that it would be almost impossible to try and name each and every one of them. So, in this quiz, we've taken some of the most memorable and iconic names in NASCAR and created the ultimate test that racing fans can enjoy! Let's jump right in and get started!
