For many years, NASCAR only hosted two or three races on road courses in any of the top three divisions, providing limited opportunities for ringers. However, in some cases, the ringers have been able to pull off victories. </p><p>NASCAR describes road course ringers as "drivers who specialize in turning both left and right," and says that "perhaps the greatest road-course ringer in NASCAR history might be <a href="/wiki/Dan_Gurney" title="Dan Gurney">Dan Gurney</a>" after he won four straight NASCAR races at <a href="/wiki/Riverside_International_Raceway" title="Riverside International Raceway">Riverside</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-NASCAR04172008_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NASCAR04172008-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He lapped the field at the 1964 event.<sup id="cite_ref-NASCAR04172008_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NASCAR04172008-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Term_origin">Term origin</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Road_course_ringer&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Term origin"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>"Ringer" is a slang term commonly used in sports to describe a particularly good competitor who is brought in to win in a specific match as opposed to competing in the entire schedule. It can also be used to describe an athlete who plays in a higher level playing in a lower level tournament; a <a href="/wiki/Softball" title="Softball">softball</a> team in a Class C/D tournament (as governed by USA Softball) hires one or two players who fit in Class A or B, or a tennis player who plays in Class I tournaments as a "ringer" in a Class II tournament. For example, in <a href="/wiki/Association_football" title="Association football">association football</a>, at the FIFA Under-23 Championships that is typically held at the Olympic Games, teams are allowed a selected number of players just over the age of 23. The term does not relate directly to racing and does not refer to the shape of the race course, but instead the term in NASCAR refers to the driver being typically driver who races in other circuits. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Drivers">Drivers</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Road_course_ringer&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Drivers"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:RonFellows2010Bucyrus200RoadAmerica.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/54/RonFellows2010Bucyrus200RoadAmerica.jpg/220px-RonFellows2010Bucyrus200RoadAmerica.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="379" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/54/RonFellows2010Bucyrus200RoadAmerica.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="272" data-file-height="468" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Ron_Fellows" title="Ron Fellows">Ron Fellows</a> is one of the few ringers to win races in two of <a href="/wiki/NASCAR" title="NASCAR">NASCAR</a>'s top three divisions.</figcaption></figure> <p>A road course ringer is often brought in if the usual driver either is inexperienced at road courses,<sup id="cite_ref-ESPN08102007_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ESPN08102007-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> or is having a poor season and the team needs an excellent qualifying run to qualify for the race.<sup id="cite_ref-ESPN08102007_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ESPN08102007-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Cup Series teams who are near the bottom of the top 35 in owner points hire a ringer or adept former competitor like <a href="/wiki/Terry_Labonte" title="Terry Labonte">Terry Labonte</a> to ensure that they remain in top 35 to keep a guaranteed starting spot in future races.
