When Bristol Motor Speedway’s streak of 50 consecutive Nextel Cup sellouts started in August of 1982 only two drivers were in the field that evening who will compete in the upcoming Food City 500 on March 25.

Back in the summer of ’82, Ricky Rudd was a 25-year-old searching for his first Cup victory while driving for Richard Childress. The 22-year-old Petty was also looking for his first win and was piloting the STP Pontiac for Petty Enterprises.
