Ned Jarrett

Jarrett had it all -- hard-charging capabilities combined with the consistency essential to stock-car success. The combination produced two Cup Series championships. His 50 career victories are tied for 10th all-time with Junior Johnson. He also won 28 races during the 1964 and '65 seasons. Jarrett won his first series title in 1961; he finished with only one victory, but posted an impressive 34 top-10s in 46 starts. In 1965, he won his second title, and despite a back injury sustained at Greenville, S.C., Jarrett finished with 13 wins and 42 top-fives in 54 starts.
