DARLINGTON, S.C. — Twenty years after their side-by-side battle at Darlington Raceway produced the closest finish in NASCAR Cup Series history, Ricky Craven and Kurt Busch are teaming up to produce an exhilarating start to the Goodyear 400. Darlington Raceway announced Tuesday that the legendary NASCAR drivers will serve as the Goodyear 400’s Honorary Starters on May 14. “When I crossed over the start/finish line side-by-side with Kurt Busch 20 years ago, I had no idea if I had won or lost,” Craven said. “I am honored to be a co-honorary starter for the Goodyear 400 alongside my friend Ricky Craven,” Busch said.
