Yes, several! I have actually spoken with more than just can I have your autograph 2 NEXTEL CUP Drivers....
David Gilliland - Infineon 2006- hot pit waiting to Qualify, for his first NEXTEL CUP race.
Robby Gordon - Infineon 2006 - In the Legends Pit area Friday evening him & some buddies came down and hung out for a while and were horsing around on there beefed up Golf Cart!
But, NASCAR is a HUGE sanctioning body! So, I have met many others...

I met Kyle Petty about 18 yrs. ago at "The Rock".( I was 12yrs. old) The track is only a few miles from my home. A few of the guys were there testing. We were able to go into the garage area. Kyle was extremely nice. He took the time to autograph the jacket I was wearing. There were a few other drivers there, but none were nice enough to give us the time of day. They're forgiven; they were at work and really didn't need to be bothered.

I have met Kenny Wallace at Milwaukee mile in 2004 at a Busch race. I was in the Garage area and had my Picture taken with him. He is a really nice guy. I also met David Stremme, Kyle Busch, and Greg Biffle at the same race. One of our friends was a photographer for a local race mag at the time so we met a lot of drivers! I would like to meet some of the older racers like DW and Richard Petty.

I met Jeff Gordon in the pit area at Sears Point (Infinion) in Sonoma CA in June 2001, could not get an autograph as he was getting in the car, this was right before he won the road course race..........and I met Tony Stewart in 2005, on a Saturday night before the Infinion race, he helicoptered in to Altamont Raceway Park in Tracy CA to race sprints that night.....I got a Handshake & autograph from him........

I met Jeff Gordon at the Hendrick Motorsports complex. I just stopped by HMS one day after going to buy tickets for the October('99) race at Lowes Motor Speedway. I live about 10 minutes away from HMS and LMS. All I expected to see was race cars. As it turns out it was the day that Ray Evernham announced to HMS and the sponsors that he was leaving to start up with Dodge. I met Brian Whitesell and then about 3 minutes later Jeff walked out. We talked for about 15 minutes and he signed my race tickets. He went on the win that race. It rained on Sunday, raced on Monday. He came on strong with about 25 laps to go passing Bobby LaBonte for the win. He was a super nice guy and very approachable. .
