Speedway Motorsports founder Bruton Smith died on Wednesday at age 95. Smith is a member of the NASCAR Hall of Fame for his contributions as a race promoter and track owner.
More than 195 drivers have won a Cup Series race since NASCAR started in 1948, but who has won the most?O. Bruton Smith, who emerged from North Carolina farm country and parlayed his love of motorsports into a Hall of Fame career as one of the biggest track owners and most successful promoters in the history of auto racing, died Wednesday. He was 95.
Smith instead became an entrepreneur — promoting his first race at age 18 — and became one of the giants in stock car racing. Speedway Motorsports, the company he founded, was the first motorsports company to trade on the New York Stock Exchange and it currently owns 11 facilities across the United States.
