In NASCAR Cup Series competition the #06 car has started 322 races with 37 drivers and has 1 win, 0 poles, 46 top 5s, 115 top 10s, and 146 DNFs.

Neil Castles  started 231 races from 1967-1975. Castles was an “also-ran” of the old days who once found himself having an uncharacteristically good day. He had lapped Curtis Turner, but the flagman apparently did not believe it, for he kept giving Castles the move-over flag to let Turner around him. As Castles told the story: “The starter kept doing this, and I was getting real mad, so I just picked up my gun and when I come by the stand the next time I took aim and shot that flag out of his hand.” Castles did not win any races in his career.


From 1964-1967 Cale Yarborough started the #06 car 20 times including 1 win in 1965 at Valdosta. It was his first career win.


In 1966 Johnny Wynn started the #06 in 20 races.
