built 139 days ago
After the 1983 season, Earnhardt returned to Richard Childress Racing, swapping teams with Ricky Rudd. Rudd went to Bud Moore's #15, and Dale took over the #3 made famous by Rudd. Wrangler sponsored both cars. During the 1984 and 1985 seasons, Earnhardt visited victory lane six times, at Talladega, Atlanta, Richmond, Bristol (twice), and Martinsville, where he finished fourth and eighth in the season standings, respectively.

In 1984, Earnhardt returned to Richard Childress Racing, where he would remain for the rest of his career as the driver of the famous #3 car. He won two races that year, and led the championship at the midway point of the season before finishing fourth.

The 1982 season was disastrous by Earnhardt standards. Richard Childress convinced Earnhardt to join up with owner Bud Moore because he didn’t think he had the proper resources for a championship run, but Moore’s Ford Thunderbird was plagued with engine failures. Earnhardt suffered 15 DNFs (Did Not Finish) that year, and finished 12th in the points standings, the lowest of his career (he finished 12th again ten years later). Despite engine woes, Earnhardt did manage to win at Darlington Raceway, ending a 39-race losing streak.
