Since 1975, there have been 27 drivers that have used the #20 in Cup series competition. Stewart is the only driver to capture victories and championships using that number. With the exception of Rob Moroso in 1990 (before he was tragically killed in a highway accident), the number was not used by a team for an entire season until Stewart in 1999.

You can view the history of any car number in Cup competition on nascar.com in the NASCAR 101 section. See the link below for the history of the #20. From there you can select a driver and see his race results for that year. The results for a particular race will tell you the car make and sponsor.

In the Busch races, Denny Hamilin drives the # 20 car..... but in the Nextel is Tony's #20......... and he has always driven the 20 in the cup races.....there are others who have had the 20 car but Tony has only driven number 20

No one...Tony is the only person who has ever been in that car...

Car #20 History
Tony Stewart trotted out the #20 Home Depot car at the 1999 Daytona 500, qualifying on the outside pole. He won three races as well as the NASCAR Rookie of the Year honors. Since then, the car has seen very few changes, as Stewart has won 29 races as well as the 2002 championship. He won his second championship in 2005. Home Depot has been the primary sponsor of the car since it's debut.

Tony Stewart picked the #20 for this car, as a way to honour a former car owner in sprint car action, Glen Neibel, whose yellow #20 sprint cars were known for having six-cylinder engines instead of eight-cylinder engines in order to run a lighter car.
