Interesting Facts about Darrell Waltrip

  1. 3 time Winston Cup champion. 1981, 1982 and 1985.
  2. 59 career pole positions. 4th on the all time list.
  3. Younger brother, Michael Waltrip, currently drives a Nextel Cup.
  4. As of now, he has won 84 Winston Cup races. Also tied with Bobby Allison for 3rd on the all-time win list.

  6. His last race as an owner/driver he drove an all white Chevrolet Monte Carlo called the 'Tim Flock Special'. He donated the prize money to racing legend Tim Flock who was sick at the time to help with medical expenses. Tim's car number in 1955, and 1956 was 300. Darrell wanted to use this number on the car, but NASCAR rules only allow two digit numbers on the cars. So he had to take 300 off of the car, and use his number 17. The next race, he drove for Dale Earnhardt Inc, car number 1, for most of the season until Steve Park recovered from injuries from a crash at Atlanta. The irony here is Darrell, and Dale never really got along with each other before this.
