He is a former competitor in all three of NASCAR's national touring series and is also the winner of the 1978 Snowball Derby.

Racing career

Mader won the 1978 Snowball Derby, beating Mark Martin.[1]

Mader competed in ten NASCAR Winston Cup Series races between 1988 and 1992, including leading seven laps at Martinsville Speedway in 1992. In the Busch Series, he raced in 22 events between 1986 and 1992, with nine Top 10 finishes. He raced in two Craftsman Truck Series events in 1998.[2]

In his career, Dave has raced Southern All Star, Sunoco, ASA, NASCAR Late Model Stock, All Pro, NASCAR All - American Challenge, ARCA, NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, Winston Cup, and Busch Series. Mader won four consecutive championships in the All-American Challenge Series between 1985 and 1988.[3] He also builds and manufactures his own race cars, helps various race teams as their crew chief, and has taught at Race Car College. He has accumulated 224 feature wins. He also competed in the 1992 running of The Winston, driving the No. 9 car which was in the race as a winning team, thanks to Bill Elliott winning in 1991.

In 2012, Mader was inducted into the Alabama Auto Racing Pioneers Hall of Fame.[3]

ARCA Menards Series
