1990 National Series Champions
NASCAR Winston Cup: Dale Earnhardt (Chevrolet)
NASCAR Busch Grand National: Chuck Bown (Pontiac)
ARCA Permatex SuperCar Series: Bob Brevak (Buick)
One of the most enduring events of 1990 happened off the track, as in June the big budget Tom Cruise film Days of Thunder was released, bringing NASCAR culture across the nation and popularizing such phrases as "rubbin' is racin'" beyond the die-hard stock car fans of the day.
