◾1995 Hanes Martinsville race After a career best finish of 2nd Ted was punched by Ricky Rudd's crew chief Bill Ingle.
He was mad because Ted had spun Ricky out on lap 314.
Bill was fined $250 by NASCAR and the incident was deemed a "short track encounter ..
◾After an on track encounter with Kelly Bires during a truck race at Milwaukee in 2007 Ted was set out a race and fined $10,000. The driver who subbed for him was Brad Keselowski who was struggling to make it into NASCAR . His family's races team went bankrupt and had to pull out of the Truck series Then, the Xfinity team he had been with in 2007 shut its doors . it was during the Memphis truck race that Brad
was able to show his talent . He had won the pole . led the first 19 laps , then led again later in the race. He was caught up in a wreck but all hope was not lost as Dale Jr liked what he saw and hired Brad to drive . And as they say the rest is history .
