Bill Elliott
William Clyde “Bill” Elliott (born October 8, 1955), also known by his nicknames “Awesome Bill from Dawsonville” and “Million Dollar Bill,” is a retired American racing driver and former NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion.
In 2007, Elliott was inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America.
He won the NASCAR Winston Cup Series championship in 1988 and has a total of 44 wins in that series.
Two Daytona 500 victories and the record for four consecutive wins at Michigan International Speedway are also to his credit. He also still holds the unbeaten record for the highest qualifying speeds at Talladega at 212.809 mph (approx. 342.48 km/h) and at Daytona at 210.364 mph (approx. 338.52 km/h). The speed recorded at Talladega in 1987 remains the fastest in NASCAR history to this day.
Bill Elliott won the “NASCAR’s Most Popular Driver Award” 16 times. This is also an unbeaten record.
