NASCAR's 75 Most Significant Racers of All-Time List to be Curated by Site Founder AJ Appeal


Yorba Linda, California


AJ Appeal, founder of RacingRefresh.com, has returned to the stock car world for a special project in celebration of NASCAR's 75th anniversary. As part of the celebration, AJ has curated a list of the 75 most significant racers in NASCAR history. Each driver on the list has been specifically reviewed and both a historic and statistic analysis of the driver was considered for their inclusion.


Appeal, who left RacingRefresh.com for another opportunity in the world of racing, is excited to be back in the NASCAR scene for this original content. "NASCAR has a rich history, and it's an honor to curate this list," said Appeal. "Each driver on the list has left an indelible mark on the sport, and it's important to recognize their contributions."


Site Administrator Adam Carabine offered the following sentiment. “We’re so excited to have AJ back to help celebrate 75 years of NASCAR. This list of the 75 most significant drivers is a testament to the rich history and legacy of the sport. We’re thrilled to contribute to the ongoing coverage of NASCAR and to continue providing fans with the best content possible.”


The list will include drivers from NASCAR's early years to the modern era, showcasing the evolution of the sport over the past 75 years. It will be released in weekly installments of 5-10 drivers, giving fans and enthusiasts a chance to relive some of the greatest talents in NASCAR history.
