Countdown To Daytona For Wednesday, Feb 20, 2013
By Reid Spencer, NASCAR Wire Service
There are four days left before the season-opening Daytona 500; hence, today’s number is:
4: The number of Daytona 500 poles won by three-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion Cale Yarborough, who claimed 12 career poles at Daytona in all races. Yarborough twice parlayed his top starting spot in the Daytona 500 into a victory, winning the “Great American Race” from the pole in both 1968 and, 16 years later, in 1984. Yarborough had a knack for the 2.5-mile superspeedway. In 57 appearances at the track, he won nine times and posted 27 top-10 finishes.
