At the very top of the list of all-time NASCAR championships sit two men:
NASCAR Hall of Famer Richie Evans … and Mike Stefanik. Each tallied nine in their exemplary careers, with Stefanik’s coming in both the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour and NASCAR K&N Pro Series East.
Seven of his titles came in his primary racing series – the NASCAR Whelen
Modified Tour. In 2003, he was named one of the Tour’s 10 Greatest Drivers, an obvious choice if there ever was one – Stefanik holds the all-time series record in championships, wins, poles, top fives and top 10s.
Stefanik won two championships consecutively in NASCAR K&N Pro Series East competition, in 1997-98. That, along with a win total that ties for ninth on the alltime series wins list, earned him a spot on the Top 10 Drivers of the First 25 Years of the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East list in 2011.
In addition, Stefanik spent one full-time season in the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series – and it was a successful one. He captured the Rookie of the Year Award in 1999.
