    Born in Galesburg, Illinois
    Has raced in NASCAR, USAC, ARCA and the IRL Infiniti Pro Series

    Arrested on July 7, 2007 with his girlfriend at an amusement park for possession of heroin and drug paraphernalia
    Was suspended indefinitely from NASCAR shortly after
    Younger brother of fellow driver A.J. Fike

Why he might be annoying:

    He crashed out of several races that he competed in.
    He drove for two Winston Cup-affiliated teams (Brewco Motorsports and KHI) in the Busch Series, but failed to produce results.
    He was the second Craftsman Truck Series driver to be suspended for substance abuse in 2007.
    He was the first driver to be arrested for possession or using substances.
    He admitted to taking heroin on race days.
    He was high the day of his last NASCAR race, where he had a career-best finish of 5th.
    He replaced a popular driver in the Red Horse Racing ride because he brought money from his family to the team.
    He threw a promising career away.
    His name sounds very close to a dirty word.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He agreed to form a new anti-drug organization, 'Racing Against Drugs'.
    In an interview, he said that the addiction to heroin came close to killing him on one occasion.
    Before turning to stock cars, he was a very successful open-wheel racer.
    He never tested positive for any kind of banned substances in NASCAR.
    His interview with ESPN helped push for change in NASCAR's drug-testing policy.
