![]() Richard Childress Childress, a self-made racer, was respectable behind the wheel. Between 1969-81 he had six top-five finishes and 76 top-10s in 285 starts, finishing fifth in the Cup Series point standings in 1975. Having formed Richard Childress Racing in '72, Childress retired from driving in '81. The rest, as they say, is history. Much of that history is linked to one of NASCAR's greatest drivers, Dale Earnhardt, who won six championships and 67 races between 1984-2000 for RCR. But Childress has had other successes, as well. Childress' 11 national series owner championships is tied with Rick Hendrick for the all-time lead.
