Richard Petty is the all time winningest driver in NASCAR history, and a very popular icon of the sport. Born near Level Cross, NC, and a son of stock car racing founding legend Lee Petty, Richard is a gregarious, outgoing person that is always willing to donate his time and money to charity. His son Kyle started "Victory Junction Gang Camp", a camp with many activities for children with serious diseases.
