Definitely one of the weirdest bad seasons ever. 2 wins but ends up finishing 25th in points. Bet he wished he could have shot something through the window.

I think that a lot of people tend to forget that a) the 02 Cup Series season was just as nail-biting as many others that have come since but never gets the credit it deserves and b) if you messed with Ward, he could be just as in-your-face as a lot of hot-tempered drivers can be, he just chose to express his feelings in a way that stood out among others (henceforth, the LEGENDARY "I wish I had something I could have shot through the window" quote that still cracks me up every time I hear it 😂😂😂😂) Side note: that 22 Caterpillar Dodge scheme low key, is just as iconic as the 9 Evernham Dodge, in my opinion......

Ward Burton’s 2002 is a lot like Jeremy Mayfield’s 2000. He was either in victory lane or taking an exit. Rusty Wallace went winless in 2002 & scored 1,212 more points than Ward Burton.

It says a lot about his genuine talent that even with at least 6 of those DNF’s being someone else’s fault, he managed 2 wins, something a lot of popular cup drivers today can’t say for themselves

@quentinparhiala9415 2 года назад

I agree with you 100%

@Cynon 2 года назад

I still don't think this was a bad season -- especially since my dad was a fan of his ever since 1994. Winning the Daytona 500 made our house a party atmosphere. Never heard my dad celebrate that loud for anything before or since. How well he did in the points that year didn't matter, winning the Daytona 500 gave him the respect that it didn't seem like he had beforehand. Especially since, back then, it wasn't things like "playoff appearances" or "final 4 runs" that mattered, but, if you weren't the champion, winning big races, a strong points finish, or winning a large number of races was how you gauged success.

@KMartReady 2 года назад

I always wondered how much better Ward would have been if he didn't drive for Bill Davis Racing. He carried a team that was mid pack at best even during that time.

@mat99rich 2 года назад

As a big fan of Ward Burton I know that once he won the Daytona 500 he started preparations for his Wildlife refuge so his mind might not of been heavily in this season. He was a pretty consistent driver most seasons but this season was bad. If he had the 2 wins and been racing like he did in 1998 or 99 he probably could have had a shot at the championship.

@franklinmills1756 2 года назад

Ward was one of my favorite drivers. he was good, but often in the wrong place at the wrong time getting caught up in a wreck someone else caused. I also still have a CAT racing jacket of Ward's when Bill Davis team was driving Pontiacs.

2002 had some memorable moments. The first Daytona 500 after Dale Sr’s passing, Jimmie Johnson starting on the pole in his first full time season, Tony Stewart’s engine failing on lap 3 (the silent lap), Dale Jr’s multiple incidents (shredded tire, near comeback, brake failure, then caught in the Big One), Dave Marcis final race, and never forget Sterling Marlin’s red flag blunder. Capped off from BP’s famous call “Oh! He can’t do that!”

As a 5 year old who was obsessed with construction, I stumbled across the 2002 Daytona 500 on TV and spotted Ward Burton’s CAT car. Getting the win solidified my NASCAR fandom. I pretty much only remember the win and Ward’s incident with Dale Jr, but he’ll always be my first favorite driver.

I love Ward but let's be honest here,he was very lucky to have won the Daytona 500 that year thanks to Sterling Marlin spinning out Jeff Gordon under the caution with a few laps to go. Had that nonsense not taken place JG would be a 4x Daytona 500 champion cause he went on to win his eventual 3rd in 2005.
