2002 BUSCH SERIES TEAM/DRIVER CHART
Updated 11-11-2002
2002 Rookie of the Year Candidates
Kerry Earnhardt, #12
Shane Hmiel, #47
Kasey Kahne, #98
Casey Mears, #66
Scott Riggs, #10
Johnny Sauter, #2
Brian Vickers, #40
note: it is my understanding that if a driver has driven in five or more races in a season in an upper NASCAR series (Winston Cup),
a driver cannot be eligible for the ROTY in a ‘lower’ series
so Stacy Compton is not eligible
