Nascar What year did Richard Petty retire as a driver?

May be...

  • And What did he call his tour that year?
  • No offense Tom, but I think you're confusing the 84 Fourth of July race, the last race Richard won, with his last race run..
    Ronnie Ray-Gun was at the 84 race, and was no longer President when
    Richard had his "fan appreciation tour"...
  • 1993,

    The Fan Appreciation tour.

    The last race, was the only race a sitting President has ever attended. Ronald Regan was there.
  • Perhaps tom p is confused with the last race The King ever won when he referred to President Reagan's attendance, in 1984.
    What's it gonna take for the team to win one?
  • Yep the Hooters 500!!!! (Atlanta Motor Speedway!!!)

    Never forget a HOOTER!!!!

    He finished 35th
  • 1992 - I remember because his last race was Jeff Gordon's first race. It was called the fan appreciation tour.
  • 1992
  • Ah, O.F. it was the saddest year of my life 1992. The Richard Petty Fan Appreciation Tour was what he called his last season. I got one of his little diecast cars from every race. It had some bright points that season I loved it when he started 2nd in the Firecracker 400 and went on to lead some laps. Was sad and disappointed that he went out in a "blaze of glory". Long live the KIng!

    Just an opinion as always.
