Richard Brickhouse (born October 27, 1939 in Rocky Point, North Carolina) was a journeyman NASCAR driver when he won the inaugural Talladega 500 in 1969 after a boycott of the top stars of the sport at the time because of the high rate of speeds at the racetrack. He retired in 1982 with 13 career top 10's. His nephew Jeremy, is a longtime spotter in the Sprint Cup Series for Kurt Busch.
