There have been many popular wins in the history of NASCAR. When Jody Ridley won the 1981 Mason-Dixon 500 at Dover driving for Junie Donlavey, many compared the feat to David slaying Goliath.
Ridley says he and Donlavey ran 31 races in 1981 using just one car!
Kyle Petty 30 years later called it the most popular win in NASCAR history and that's coming from the son of The King. Petty repeated that Mark Martin once said there were no nice guys in NASCAR, but called Donlavey the exception.
It's been 10 years now since Junie fielded his familiar #90.
How about you.... your most popular win?
