OK, what was it that Dale Earnhardt said to Jay Leno when asked about being the second winner of the brickyard 400?

racer8, seems like you stumped us. :huh: How about giving us the answer and then posting another question. :) [/b][/quote]
Since Jeff Gordon won the frist Brickyard 400, Dale's answer to Leno's question was, " I'm the first man to win it".


Next question: where did Alan Kulwicki win his first Winston cup race?

NO driver has won a Nascar Cup race in a car numbered "0".
 
Yes, they have. Twice, in fact.

Got me stumped. Remember that the Trivia Quiz is limited to the Nascar Cup series.
 
I show 2 wins by the "0" car.

9/11/1960 at California State Fairgorunds in Sacremento, California Jim Cook won from the pole.
5/13/1966 at Starlight Speedway in Monroe, North Carolina Darel Dieringer won from the 20th starting position.


So the answer to the question is ....

Darel Dieringer, 1966, Stralight Speedway in Monroe, North Carolina.

Close enough. That was the first Talladega race in 1984. The second Talladega race had 68 cautions.

Your turn.
 
OK, an easy one. What driver has 3 consecutive "poles" at the Daytona 500 but has yet to win it.
 
Ken Schrader is the most recent 3 consecutive pole winning driver at Daytona and is the only 3 time pole winning driver to yet win the Daytona 500 event.

Bill Elliott was the next most recent 3 consecutive pole winner at Daytona,He won twice from the pole position in those 3 attempts.

Fireball Roberts was the first driver to do this feat,He won once from the pole position at Daytona.
