Honoring a friend and a legend.
@RustyWallace won the race at California Speedway on this date in 2001.
The race was held on what would have been Dale Earnhardt’s 50th birthday.
Wallace celebrated his victory on the track with an Earnhardt flag.
Today marks the 40th anniversary of @RustyWallace’s first career NASCAR Cup Series victory.
He started 14th and led 172 laps en route to Victory Lane.
Watch the entire race with the NASCAR Classics Library.

Yes running errands does mean looking for @NASCAR memorabilia!!! Had to get @RustyWallace in remembrance of my moms love for him and of course my favorite driver always and forever @markmartin
@RustyWallace I work at the Rusty Wallace KIA in Alcoa TN. I am a detailer, and I love my job. My boss Markel, his boss Nick, and there bosses Kelly, Courtney, and the owner Ray are the best people I have ever worked for. It stays busy, and I work really hard for them. I love it.
Honored to have voted today for one of my mentors, Larry Phillips, to be included on the Pioneer ballot for election to the @NASCARHall! Hoping this is finally his year—he really taught me a lot.
Rusty Wallace won the 1996 NASCAR Suzuka Thunder Special 29 years ago today. 🏁
It was the first time NASCAR held an exhibition race in Japan.

On behalf of my family and our organization, I'd like to offer our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Humpy Wheeler.
A NASCAR Hall of Fame Landmark Award winner, Humpy made an irreplaceable impact on our sport and how it operates.
He was a true innovator that was far ahead of his time and he helped nurture countless future leaders in our sport. While Humpy may be gone, his legacy will undoubtedly live on. He will be greatly missed.
Next up on our talent team, there's no introduction needed, we've got NASCAR Legend, @RustyWallace! 🎙️
If you could ask Rusty anything about his career, what would it be?
Our family is very saddened by the loss of our good friend Jim McGlothlin. Jim was a wonderful man whose business accomplishments were only overshadowed by his kindness and generosity. Our thoughts and prayers are with his loved ones. He will be greatly missed.
Jim McGlothlin was a titan of industry and a giant of generosity whose impact will be felt across Virginia for generations. Suzanne and I are praying for the entire McGlothlin family as we remember a life marked by humility and extraordinary service. https://t.co/5LUZYadr3B

Bobby Allison was a titan of our sport and someone that I considered to be both a mentor and a great friend.
As I was growing up racing in series like USAC, ARTGO, ASA and NASCAR, Bobby always went out of his way to help me. He taught me so much and I wouldn’t have achieved what I did without his help.
I’ll really miss him a lot and I’d like to offer my condolences to the entire Allison family.
DIDN’T MAKE THE RIDE?
