IIt's not like petty has great equipment or has been a major player as an owner. His team(s) consistently finish 15-25th. So it's not like hes picking the best at the top level. Beyond that, owners pick their drivers with at the very least considering their marketability because they have to get sponsors to back their drivers or they dont have a team to field.
So while I dont have anything negative to say about bubba, pretending that he must be an awesome driver because his owner has the most wins in nascar history is flawed.
