1986 Nascar Firecracker 400

The 1986 Firecracker 400 (now the Coke Zero 400) was run on Friday July 4th and was won by the very popular and controversial Tim Richmond.  Richmond had won the 1980 Rookie of the Year at the Indianapolis 500 and then moved to Nascar later in 1980. 
The 1986 stock car season was Tim's best year in NASCAR as he finished 3rd in points and had 7 wins, the most for any driver in 1986.
