Foundational Bricks—The 1994 Brickyard 400: 8th, Ricky Rudd

Join me as I take a look back every Monday at the starting lineup for one of the biggest races in NASCAR history, the inaugural Brickyard 400.

Starting 8th: Ricky Rudd #10 Tide Rudd Performance Motorsports Ford 

Finished: 11th

Career Highlights: 23 Cup Series wins, 1990 Cup Series championship runner-up, first owner-driver to win the Brickyard 400, successfully identified Kevin Harvick’s “little yip-yap mouth”.

Rudd's 1994 car

Total Brickyard 400 Starts: 13

Best Brickyard 400 Finish: Winner (1997)

1994 Fun Fact: Ricky was the top-finishing owner-driver for the 1994 season, coming home fifth.  And NO, I don’t count Rusty Wallace as an owner-driver, sorry.
