Lets put an end to this Jimmie Johnson is better than Jeff Gordon because hes won the Chase six times arrogance once and for all: Jeff has more career wins: 92>70 More top-fives: 320>193 More top-tens: 454>292 More poles: 77>33 Jeff has three consecutive double-digit win seasons (a modern era record); Jimmie has only won ten races once. Jeff has tied Richard Petty for 13 wins in a season in the modern era. Jeff won 47 races over his best 5-year stretch (1995-1999); Jimmie won 35 races during his best five (2006-2010). Jeff has achieved 17 consecutive top-five finishes (a modern era record) Jeff AVERAGED a 2nd place finish over 20 consecutive races in 1998. Jeff achieved 22 PODIUM finishes in 1998. Jeff achieved 30 top-ten finishes in 2007, a modern era record. Jeffs 6th place average finish over an entire season is tied for 2nd best average finish of all-time in the modern era with Dale Sr. and Petty; his 7th place average finish over 2007 is tied for 3rd best all-time with Dale Sr., Darrell Waltrip, Bill Elliott and Dale Jarrett. Jimmies best seasonal average finish was 10th in 2006. Jeff has averaged a 10th place finish over seven different seasons; Jimmie has only achieved that ONCE. Jeff has scored the most points in a season on seven different occasions with four different crew chiefs; Jimmie has only achieved that feat three times with the same crew chief. Jeff has won races with five different crew chiefs; proving superior adaptability to Jimmie. Conclusion: Jeff is the superior driver to Jimmie; regardless if he wins his 7th Chase or not Jeff has put up astronomical records and numbers during the modern era that Johnson will likely never duplicate.
