The buzz around Casey Atwood was almost palpable in the late 1990s to early 2000s. People compared him to the likes of Jeff Gordon, claiming he was going to be the next big thing in NASCAR. After a successful run in the Busch Series, now the Xfinity Series, he was called up to the big show to race for Ray Evernham in the No. 19 Dodge alongside Bill Elliott.
