Wallace, the 1984 Winston Cup Rookie-of-the-Year and 1989 series champion, has produced an incredible record that has seen him win 11 percent of his races, finish in the top-five 34 percent of the time and finish among the top-10 an amazing 53 percent of the time. The short-track driving prowess of the Missouri native follows him into the Winston Cup ranks. A winner of more than 200 short-track feature wins on tracks all across the nation, Wallace has an unparalleled record on the tracks less than a mile in length. In 98 short-track races, Wallace has won 18 races (18 percent), finished in the top-five in 48 events (49 percent) and in the top-10 in 68 events (69 percent). Wallace saw a streak of 23 consecutive short-track top-10 finishes, dating back to April 1992, come to an end when he was spun out of contention at Bristol in August, resulting in a 21st-place finish. "When the history book on the modern era of NASCAR racing is written, I don't want to be remembered as just a good short-track driver...I want to be remembered as a top competitor at all of the tracks," said Wallace. " Sure, we've been really competitive on the small tracks, but we've won at Charlotte, Michigan, Pocono and other tracks, too. I want to be remembered as a well-rounded competitor."
