For Fans: Five NASCAR Drivers Decline President Obama's White House Invitation
Really for FrankG
President Barack Obama will honor NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson and the 11 other Chase drivers from last year in a White House ceremony on Wednesday -- but nearly half of the 2010 playoff contenders won't be there.

NASCAR said Thursday that five drivers -- Greg Biffle, Kurt Busch, Carl Edwards, Kevin Harvick and Tony Stewart -- will not be attending the White House visit due to "schedule conflicts."

Johnson, Denny Hamlin, Jeff Gordon, Kyle Busch, Clint Bowyer, Jeff Burton and Matt Kenseth will attend.
