I just realized you wrote the JL piece!
no doubt, he is among the very best, especially today.
I met Phil Montieth in the late 70`s. We lived in the same city.
I worked in a gas station for a guy who ran a 69 Firebird in Pro E.T.
At the time, "Hatari" was also a 69 Firebird, driven by Dave Mannerro.
They were Pontiac guys, and friends, along with Sam Biondo.
for sure, when Pete came along, he took winning drag races to a level we hadn`t seen before.
I`m a little biased, but, It was ridiculous...

When he's entered it's mildly surprising when he doesn't win.

To me it’s no contest....Peter Biondo and I saw him win his first big money race. One weekend, 2 races and he won both and was 17 at the time. He wins in any car he gets in no matter what it is and how it’s driven. Many years ago if Sam rolled thru the gates everyone expected him to win and he often did. Peter and Sal continued that and Peter really took it to another level. There are a lot of great racers that have won a ton of races. It’s real tough to pick one. I still say it’s Peter....

I'm no Justin fanboy, but 3 titles and a 2nd in two seasons is pretty amazing. Then you consider his Stock title a few seasons prior, winning national events in 5 or 6 classes, 20+ national event wins in his early 30s. It's rare air.
I agree that it's not a one-race event but the discussion shows how diverse the criteria everyone uses to decide who is the best..................js

If we are talking GOAT.
Justin is a great racer and if it’s about what have you done lately
Ok Justin done well But can he win anywhere other than D7?
Peter. Fletcher Rampy Have done it everywhere
And have done it with fast A’B’C cars but also some slow class cars
Congrats Justin Lamb from some beat off who ain’t won nothing

James,
You have a win this year. That's one more than me and many other racers current and retired.

Definitely bias statement but D1 & D3 are toughest to win.. Very impressive numbers no doubt & too early for any judgement. Would like to see all mentioned names with a win vs event attendance ratio when all said & done.. should be an interesting benchmark

It will take years to compare who is the GOAT...Everybody has a favorite.
But regardless, Justin is a great young driver any way you want to slice it. 5x Champ with 25 National event wins and multiples of Divisional Wins in several categories at his young age. Congrats Justin on another great year.. ! (and congrats on your Super Stock Win and Stock Runner up, outside of D7 at the Chicago Route 66 Nationals this year.)
