Tommy Houston

Over his career, Houston and Jack Ingram became known as the pair of journeymen drivers that helped that series grow throughout the 1980s and early 1990s.

27 Kings Inn Chevy for Mike Day, Houston started 23rd and finished the race in ninth position.

The next week, Houston started 15th at the series' first ever short track race, at Richmond Fairgrounds Raceway.

At Hickory Speedway in August, however, Houston held off Tommy Ellis for his second career win, after starting fourth.

His sponsors over the years included Southern Biscuit Flour, Roses Stores, and, later, Red Devil Paints.

Houston snapped a 50 race winless streak at his home track on Easter Sunday in 1992 after the death of his father the day before.
