![]() Richard Petty Very rarely in sports do you find the all-time greatest competitor double as the all-time greatest ambassador. But that's exactly what you get with Richard "The King" Petty. The mountain of records he holds -- most of which will never be broken -- is one thing. But what Petty brought to NASCAR off the track during and after his long career cannot be measured by any numerical figures. But his on-track success cannot be ignored. His Cup Series records are staggering: most wins (200), most poles (123), tied for most championships (seven), most wins in a season (27), most Daytona 500 wins (seven), most consecutive wins (10) and most starts (1,185).
