In NASCAR, every car number has its own identity, statistics, and emotions around it. Some carry with them nearly 80 years of stock car racing history, evoking strong reactions from fans whenever it appears on the track. Others have yet to find their place in the pages of stock car racing greatness, but numerology has always been an interesting trend to follow in a sport where the car numbers are an integral part of each driver and team's identity.
Historically, no number has earned more victories than the No. 11, while none have run more races than the No. 43, and some have reached a level of idolatry that most drivers can only dream of — like the iconic No. 3, which still graces the back windows of passenger vehicles across America today.
