Ronnie Silver (born July 20, 1951) is a former American stock car racer and crew chief. He raced in the NASCAR Busch Series for eight seasons, winning two races.

Career[edit]

A native of Asheville, North Carolina, Silver's career started in the Whelen All-American Series, in which he finished fourth in the 1982 Mid-Atlantic Region season.[1] Eventually, Silver joined the Busch Series in its inaugural season as an owner driver, and finished 7th in the Southeastern 150 at Bristol Motor Speedway.[2] Silver ended the season 15th in points with 1,514, along with 7 top tens and 2 top fives.[3] In 1984, Silver was the car owner for Jack Ingram, who won the Busch 200 at Langley Speedway.[4] In 1985, Silver claimed his first career NASCAR victory in the Bobby Isaac Memorial 200 at Hickory Motor Speedway; Silver won again at Hickory in 1986, this time in the Mountain Dew 400 after taking the lead from Jack Ingram with 11 laps left.[5] In 1985 and 1986, Silver finished 8th (3268 points)[6] and 7th (3927 points),[7] respectively. In 1989, Silver's slow time trial for the All Pro 300 at Charlotte Motor Speedway relegated him to the 40-lap consolation race as a last chance to qualify for the event.[8] However, Silver did not make the field.[9] In 1992, Silver's team served Shawna Robinson at Daytona International Speedway, North Carolina Motor Speedway and Atlanta Motor Speedway, crashing at Daytona and Atlanta.[10] The following season, Silver failed to qualify for The Pantry 300.[11]

Later, Silver owned cars and served as crew chief for Michael Waltrip in the Busch Series,[12] and currently works in the family auto body repair business.[13] Eventually, Silver became the crew chief for Michael Waltrip Racing's Patty Moise in 1998 with engines supplied from Roush Racing,[14][15] though in 2000, Silver worked less with the team due to business obligations in his hometown of Asheville, North Carolina.[16]
