He's reached the (100 win) milestone because he won on Sunday... But I agree with Kyle Petty...cup to cup, NNS to NNS, trucks to trucks...
“I’m sick and freaking tired of hearing Kyle Busch, 98 NASCAR wins,” Petty said Friday during SPEED’s broadcast of Cup practice. “He’s won 21 Cup races. Compare Cup to Cup, Nationwide to Nationwide and Truck to Truck. I’m sorry, that’s a Kyle Petty opinion. But they never do it with anybody but Kyle Busch.”
Petty has a point. When Darrell Waltrip was recently voted into NASCAR’s Hall of Fame, his résumé read 84 wins, not 97 (84 Cup, 13 Nationwide). Dale Earnhardt isn’t recognized as having 97 wins (76 Cup, 21 Nationwide), either; he has 76.
