Biography

Bobby Dotter (born July 11, 1960) is a former professional stock car racing driver. His father, Bob Dotter, is a three-time champion the Auto Racing Club of America. Dotter has made 209 starts in the NASCAR Busch Series, posting 42 top-tens and four poles. In 2000, Dotter began running in the NASCAR West Series for Gene Christensen, winning four races and the Most Popular Driver Title. He finished second in points.

Dotter is also a veteran of the Craftsman Truck Series. He has seventy starts and four top-tens. He currently co-owns SS-Green Light Racing.

Racing career

Dotter got his start racing as a 16-year-old in 1977 driving one of his dad's Late Model cars at tracks like Waukegan Speedway and Raceway Park (Blue Island, IL.). Success came instantly with numerous wins including 17 feature wins at Raceway Park during his rookie season.

In 1992, Dotter won a Busch Series race at New River Valley Speedway after Jeff Burton was stripped of his win for a non-compliant part. He has also won races in the ASA series, All Pro series, and All American Challenge series. Dotter was involved in one of the most frightening crashes ever seen at Daytona International Speedway during the ARCA race in 1989. While driving his father's race car he suffered a flat tire, the car hit the wall and caught fire, Bobby climbed onto the roof of the race car while still at speed to avoid the flames. He rode on the roof until the car slowed enough that he could jump off. He suffered second and third degree burns to his face and arms.
