Career
Faggart raced in the NASCAR Goody's Dash Series during the 1980s, winning several races, before moving to the Sportsman Division, later the Igloo Sportsman Series, in 1990, running it until the series closed in 1995.[1][2] He established himself as a winning driver in the Sportsman Division, winning both in the series itself and also in local Late Model competition in the early 1990s;[3] in 1992 he won two Sportsman Series races at Charlotte Motor Speedway within the span of five days,[4] going on to win the series championship;[5] it was the first season in which the series had awarded a points title.[6]
Faggart attempted to qualify for seven Winston Cup Series races during his career, but never made the field for a race in NASCAR's top division.[7] He did compete in the Winston Open, a preliminary event for NASCAR's All-Star race, with his best run coming in 1996, where he qualified seventh and ran in the top five for part of the race before suffering engine failure and finishing 31st.[8] He ran a limited schedule in the NASCAR Busch Series over several years; he ran a few events in the late 1980s and late 1990s, then competed in eleven races for Jay Robinson Racing in 2001, his most in a year. His career-best finish was 19th in 1997 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. His final start in the series came in 2002, at Charlotte Motor Speedway in May; it was his final start in top-level NASCAR competition.[9]
