Mike Wallace joined a short list of veteran racers during the 2008 season when he started his 600th career NASCAR race. With that many starts and the success he's had, it's no wonder that Wallace has accumulated more than $17 million in winnings. Of course, this doesn't shock anyone who's familiar with the Wallace racing family. His brothers, Rusty and Kenny have also gained fame in the world of NASCAR.
Wallace's long and illustrious career began in 1990 with a race in the NASCAR Nationwide series. He placed sixth and never looked back. His first win came four years later in the same series. It was a season that brought him two more wins for a total of three. He also had six top five finishes and nine top 10 finishes that year. In 2001, Wallace started 37 races and racked up a whopping $2,189,935 in winnings.
Wallace has always had success at superspeedways. In fact, in 2003 at Daytona, he recorded three top 10 finishes in three days in three different Series and with three different manufacturers. The first was a sixth-place finish in the Federated Auto Parts Chevrolet in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race, the second was a fourth-place finish in the GEICO Pontiac in the NASCAR Busch Series race, and the third was a ninth-place finish in the Miccosukee Gaming & Resorts Dodge in the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series race.
Wallace may be best known for his July 2, 2004 victory in the Winn-Dixie 250. Not only did he go from fifth to first on the final lap of the race, but he handed GEICO its first NASCAR Busch Series victory.
2009 marked 26 consecutive seasons at least one of the Wallace brothers has taken the green flag at the Daytona 500. Mike drove the #01 Fishburn Military Academy Chevrolet for JD Motorsports where he qualified 19th. Mike continued driving the 01 for JD Motorsports for the 2010-2013 NASACAR Nationwide Series finishing 12th in points in the 2012 season.
Mike is switching teams for the 2014 season where he will drive the #28 Dodge for the newly formed JGL Racing team, and its owners Gregg Mixon and James Whitner. All of us at mikewallace.com wish Mike and the #28 team, best of luck for this years campaign.
