Nobody in NASCAR has quite the reputation for being a true bada** like Ricky Rudd. One of the toughest drivers in the sport's storied history, hear Ricky recount his harrowing crash during the 1984 Busch Clash race, and why he chose to race with his eyelids taped open during the Daytona 500 just days later. Ricky also shares why he gave Rusty Wallace his "Rubberhead" nickname, and how he settled his long-standing feud with Dale Earnhardt. Learn how this self-described adrenaline junky revived his career and how he views his legacy today. Fans of all eras will be sure to enjoy this flashback to our interview with Ricky, which originally aired on October 29, 2019. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
