One of the pioneers of NASCAR, he competed in the Grand National Division, now the Sprint Cup Series. He was awarded the series' 1961 Rookie of the Year award,[1] controversially beating Wendell Scott for the honor.[2] Despite finishing 41st in the final standings, he won the 1961 rookie of the year award. There is little known of his life, even during his racing career.[3]
