FANTASY NASCAR Racin

an American stock car driver who drove the in selected races in the NASCAR Cup, Xfinity and Truck Series. Wallace is the youngest of three brothers born to Russ and Judy Wallace. Russ was a prolific race winner himself, which made him popular with fans. In September 1988, Dale Earnhardt gave Wallace the seat for his first-ever NASCAR start, in which he finished eleventh in the Xfinity Series race at Martinsville Speedway. The following year, he raced the full Xfinity Series schedule in a car owned by brother Rusty Wallace, sponsored by Cox Treated Lumber earning the 1989 Rookie of the Year award and finishing sixth in driver point standings. In 1991 he won his first two career races and finished a career-best second in the Xfinity points, and subbed for Kyle Petty in two races in the Cup series. Wallace had made his Cup debut at North Wilkesboro Speedway in the #36 Pontiac for Randy Cox, finishing 26th after a late-race crash. In 1991 At the Pyroil 500, he competed against his brothers Mike and Rusty, marking the first time since Bob, Fonty, and Tim Flock raced that three brothers competed in the same race. In 1993, Wallace moved up to the Winston Cup Series full-time, driving

the #40 Dirt Devil Pontiac Grand Prix. He had three top-tens and a twenty-third place points finish, but lost his ride at the end of the season. He returned to the Busch Series to drive the #8 TIC Financial Systems Ford. He picked up three wins and finished fourth in points. Towards the end of the season, he was hired by Robert Yates Racing to replace the injured Ernie Irvan in the Cup series. In twelve races, he finished in the top-ten three times. Wallace and FILMAR began racing in Cup full-time 1996 with funding from Square D. The following season, he won two poles, at Bristol and Martinsville respectively. Despite seven top-tens in 1998, Wallace and Square D left FILMAR to drive Andy Petree Racing's new #55 entry. His sole top-ten

came in his second place finish to Dale Earnhardt, in the then Winston 500 which was Earnhardt's final victory. Wallace pushed Earnhardt to the front in four laps to the lead. In 2001 he concentrated full time on the Xfinity series, but he also filled in for Steve Park in the Cup Series winning one pole and nailing down two top tens including a second-place finish at Rockingham Speedway, tying a career best. In 2005 he began driving for Furniture Row Racing in the Cup Series that season, and ran seventeen races with them in 2006. After four top tens in 2006, Furniture Row began racing full-time in Cup, so Wallace left PPC. Wallace was unable to keep the #78 in the top-35 in owner's points, and left the team in August. In 2008 after making the 50th Daytona 500, Wallace was black flagged

in the Daytona 500 for failure to maintain the NASCAR-required speed and he finished last. Wallace final Cup start to date came at Talladega in 2008. He would wheel the Michael Waltrip owned Champion Mortgage Toyota to a 12th place finish. Wallace continued to compete in the Xfinity series, and in 2011 he joined RAB Racing, driving without a paycheck in exchange for getting to drive competitive equipment. Wallace recorded 11 top ten finishes in 2011, with a best finish of fifth at Richmond. In October, he announced that he would return to the team in 2012. However, Wallace only ran the first five races before sponsorship issues forced him to move to a partial

schedule. Since he stopped running in the Cup series he has raced in 129 Xfinity races. He posted two top five finishes. In 2014 Wallace only ran one Xfinity series race; and he ran only three additional races in 2015. During that span he posted a best finish of 15th at Iowa; which was the final race he has ran to this point. For his career Kenny has ran in 547 Xfinity races posting nine wins. He has also ran 344 Cup races with a best finish of second on three occasions. Some info from Wikipedia
