1986 NASCAR Winston Cup Results

During the 1986 NASCAR Winston Cup season, Dale Earnhardt ruffled a few feathers, crumpled some sheetmetal, shoved rivals out of the way, and acquired the nickname "The Intimidator." Earnhardt won five races that year, running away from the field in the 1986 NASCAR Winston Cup title race. In the chart below, you will find the results for all of the 29 races that comprised the 1986 NASCAR Winston Cup Grand National Series Season.

Bobby Hillin Jr.'s #8 Miller Buick slaps the concrete
wall at Darlington Raceway after spinning out in the
April 13 TranSouth 500. Rusty Wallace's #27 Pontiac
scoots safely past to the low side. Wallace went on to
finish sixth, but he was three full laps behind winner
Dale Earnhardt who manhandled the field.
