CORRECTION: Jeremy Mayfield is the first driver to lead the NASCAR Winston Cup points without having a victory in his career since Joe Ruttman led the points after the second race of the 1983 season.(Speedworld)(5-20-98) – Correction – Mayfield is NOT the first driver with no career wins to lead the points standings since Ruttman did it in 1982. That distinction belongs to Lake Speed, who led after 3 races in 1985 – the one and only time he has ever led. Earl corrected the story and I looked it up in the Book Forty Years of Stock Car Racing and Earl is correct.(5-23-98)
