Chaotic Neutral was described as drivers who won on "accident." Or through very little special skill. Vickers was more-so the kind of driver who was more Chaotic Good, because he didn't win often, but when he did, he showed up. Also, I would hardly ever call Vickers evil. He was definitely Chaotic, though. I mean, I guess I can see where you are coming from saying he's Neutral, because Vickers has had ethically questionable moments, but I think it came off more as Chaotic than Evil. I mean, when you talk Evil, you would think of guys like Jimmie Johnson for Lawful Evil, Darrell Waltrip or Ricky Rudd for Neutral Evil, and Dale Earnhardt, Rusty Wallace, or Kyle Busch as Chaotic Evil.

It’s all relative to ones perspective. In the grand scheme of NASCAR, Danica was not a top level driver.

I have a Vickers auto card I pulled the year he won the championship. It was valued @ $85 back then. I haven’t even checked again.

I got an after hours exclusive tour from a friend at Red Bull (Mooresville) in 2011 when Vickers was there. To say the guy was weird is an understatement. Above the door on his cars said “Sheriff.” I asked who the hell is the Sheriff? His car chief said Vickers had given himself that name. That’s how proud Vickers was of going after others drivers that touched his car. Some say standing up to other drivers is a good thing. He took revenge on everyone regardless if it was just racing. Dude was a head case.
