The 1973 NASCAR Winston Cup season was a record-breaking year for driver David Pearson, who won 11 races during the season. But it still wasn't enough to win the championship, which went to single-race winner Benny Parsons in a significant upset. You will find the results of each of the 28 races of the 1973 NASCAR Winston Cup season in the chart below.
