Following his victory in the 1986 Firecracker 400 he began experiences spells were he felt fatigued and sick. He underwent a battery of tests with his doctor during the second half of the 1986 season and kept feeling spells of sickness, which he thought was pneumonia (he in fact had pneumonia and was hospitalized for it and thus did not start the 1987 season). During the 1986 Winston Cup banquet he was phoned by his doctor and informed the tests showed he had HIV.
