Hailing from Columbia, Missouri, Carl Edwards is a former NASCAR Busch series Rookie of the Year (2005), NASCAR Busch series champion (2007) and one of the most popular drivers in the NASCAR Sprint Cup series. Carl Edwards is a rock-solid driver who can score valuable points when his race car isn't very good and can be a dominating force when everything is going his way. Look for him to challenge for his initial Sprint Cup championship again soon... and for his signature back flip whenever he wins a race.
