Most Untouchable Records in Stock Car Racing History

1. Most Wins in a Career

This is unquestionably the record that has the least chance of ever being broken.

Richard Petty won an incredible 200 wins in his NASCAR career.

The next closest driver to Petty was his no. 1 rival, David Pearson, with 105 wins.

2. Most Wins in 1 Season

Richard Petty won an almost incredulous 27 races in 1967. Of course, that was a season when he competed in 48 races.

By comparison, the next closest was Jeff Gordon, who won 13 races in 1998.

3. Overall All-Time Winning Percentage

As great a career as Richard Petty had, he comes up short to Herb Thomas in overall all-time winning percentage.

According to the NASCAR record book, for drivers with 100 or more career starts, Thomas had a winning percentage of 21.053 percent (48 wins over 228 starts).

4. All-Time Starts Without a Win

J.D. McDuffie holds the distinction of having the most starts in Grand National/Sprint Cup competition without a win: 653.

Next in line is Buddy Arrington (563)

5. Most Second-Place Finishes

Not only does Richard Petty have the most wins of any competitor in NASCAR Grand National/Cup history, he is also the driver with the most second-place finishes (157).

6. Most Runner-Up Finishes in the Final Season Standings

Richard Petty is no. 1 in this category, as well.

In addition to being the first driver to win seven Grand National/Sprint Cup championships (a mark subsequently tied by the late Dale Earnhardt), Petty also finished second in the final standings six other times.

7. All-Time Owner Wins

There was substantial fanfare—and rightly so—when Hendrick Motorsports earned its 200th career Sprint Cup win at Darlington this past season for team owner Rick Hendrick

8. Most Championships by a Crew Chief

So much has been made about the five Sprint Cup championships that Chad Knaus has won with Jimmie Johnson. That feat is all the more noteworthy because all five championships came consecutively from 2006 through 2010.

But as significant as that record is for Knaus, he's still a few titles away from being the crew chief with the most career championships.

That title goes to Dale Inman, who won eight championships in his storied career: seven with Richard Petty (1964, 1967, 1971, 1972, 1974, 1975 and 1979) and one with Terry Labonte (1984).

9. Most Combined Wins Across All Three Pro Series

Don't worry, Kyle Busch fans, he gets the credit he deserves with this category.

Even though he's only 27 years old, Busch is already the active driver with the most wins across all three of NASCAR's professional series: namely, the Sprint Cup, Nationwide Series and Camping World Truck Series.

And finally...

10. Most Consecutive Wins in a Season

Once again, Richard Petty is No. 1 in this category. No surprise there, indeed.

In the same year (1967) that The King won an amazing 27 races, he also set another untouchable record of winning 10 of those races in a row.

I feel like i should have called this the Richard petty list and as always have a chilled day from the Viking
