Five things with ... Speed dishes on Golden Girl fav

With solid finishes at Daytona and Fontana, Scott Speed is proving he won't be relegated to the open-wheel graveyard.

Notorious for painting his toe nails blue before a Dover Truck Series victory, this Formula One transfer is 15th in the Cup Series point standings.

1. If one of NASCAR's star wheelmen had his own reality show, who would you tune into and why?

Scott Speed calls Rue McClanahan (Blanche) the original cougar.

Speed: Kyle Busch, because he is funny. Also, if his dad Tom Busch would be involved that would be awesome because that guy is really funny.

2. Was that Hank Williams Jr. on stage in those gold shades at the Daytona 500 or was Tim McGraw just having an off day?

Speed: I don't listen to country so I don't care.

3. Did you ever believe in the Easter Bunny, if so, what was the best thing he ever brought you as a kid?

Speed: Not sure about the Bunny, but loved the Easter egg hunts. I kicked butt in those!

4. Of all the cute canines in the driver's lot, who would have the best shot at Westminster's Best in Show and why?

Speed: I am partial to Kelly and Susie (Busch's West Highland White Terriers) because they are really the only ones I know.

5. Betty White is making a comeback. Who was your favorite Golden Girl? Blanche, Dorothy, Rose or Sophia and why?

Speed: Blanche! She was like the original cougar and if I remember correctly, she was smokin' hot!

Bonus ... Gnarly facial hair seems to be en vogue these days. Should drivers bring back the Tom Selleck stash?

Speed: NASCAR isn't ready for the stash just yet.
