It was also his last race in Cup and his best finish in 15th 3. 18fan posted: 03.13.2010 - 5:49 pm Rate this comment: (1) (0) Bobby Allison was one of the best ever at Dover's asphalt. 4.

Bud's cars always ran well at Dover in the late 1970's to 1988, with the single exception being when Earnhardt drove them in 1982-83. Earnhardt was terrible at Dover with the exception of 1989. It took him ten years of driving to finish a race at Dover on the lead lap. 5. 88&4Fan posted: 01.24.2016 - 1:40 pm Rate this comment: (2) (0) Longest interval ever between two cup starts? 6.
