David Sisco (June 26, 1937 – July 25, 2016) was a NASCAR Winston Cup Series driver who ran 133 races from 1971 to 1977, and was the 1969 Nashville Fairgrounds track champion. He was Inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame November 14th, 2023 at the Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway in Nashville, Tennessee.


Career

[edit]

Sisco also managed to earn $251,359 in his seven-year NASCAR career ($1,263,834.71 when considering inflation ).[1] His average starting position is 22nd place while he managed to finish in 19th place on average.[1] Total mileage of all of Sisco's races are 39,186.7 miles (63,064.9 km).[1] Prior to 1971, Sisco participated in a select number of late model stock car races and was the champion of one of them in 1969.

The type of tracks that best favored Sisco were flat tracks; where he would finish an average of 13th place. He did not excel on restrictor plate tracks, however, and a finish of 23rd place would become routine for Sisco during his NASCAR Cup Series career.[2]
