Ted Musgrave became the oldest Nascar champion at 49 years 11 months and 1 day, when he won the 2005 Truck Series championship.
No, he also has a chance to make history on 11/22/2009 by being the first driver ever to win the NASCAR championship title 4 years in a row. In 2010, Jimmie Johnson won his fifth straight Nascar championship.
Phil Labonte is 36 years old (birthdate: April 15, 1975).
Morgan Shepherd and James Hylton are two of the older drivers that are not continuously active, both in their 60's. Kenny Schrader, Bill Elliott and Mark Martin are the three oldest part-time drivers, they are all in their 50's.

1989, 1991, 1992, 1995, and 1996.
Nascar came up with the Chase in 2004.
It is been 8 years since Jeff Gordon has won a championship, so I say he is due for another one this year and also he has started the year off by winning a Gatorade Duel which is a good sign. Jimmie Johnson won the 2009 Sprint Cup championship. It was his fourth straight title.
Jeff Gordon turned 25 years old on August 4, 1996, prior to that he won 15 Nascar Cup Series races and 3 Nationwide Series races (formerly known as the Busch Series).
The 2011 Championship has a different point system than all of the previous years. NASCAR changed this point system to try to make it harder to win. NASCAR thinks this new point system evens out the chances for every driver. Jimmie Johnson has a very good chance of winning the championship even with this new point system. Although every one knows that luck, good or bad can decide who wins. The winner has to have good luck with them, not make mistakes and take advantage of every opportunity that presents itself.
He started his Nascar career at 2003. How ever his driving carrier started as early as 1998 when he was just 13 years old. He owns Kyle Busch Motorsports racing ''team'' where Kimi Raikkonen has driven.
