Baxter Price

Baxter Price (born November 29, 1938) is an American racing driver from Monroe, North Carolina who competed in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series.

[1] Price ran nearly the full NASCAR Grand National East Series schedule in 1972, recording eleven top tens and finishing fourth in points.

[2] Coupled with a partial schedule in that series,[3] Price ran his first Winston Cup race in 1973, and fell victim to an early crash at Richmond International Raceway.

Price scaled back his schedule in 1980, still with sponsors, but NASCAR had downsized its wheelbases, mandating new cars.

The final year of his career was in 1981, failing to qualify for the Daytona 500, retiring with mechanical issues at Richmond and running the final race of his career for Jimmy Means and his Means Racing team, starting and parking at Texas World Speedway.
