Bob Smith is a former NASCAR driver from Riner, VA. He competed in four Sprint Cup Series events in his career.
Robert V "Bobby" Smith was born in 1915 in Floyd County, Virginia. His father was killed in a coal mine accident in West Virginia when he was only three years old. His mother returned the family to Floyd County and they lived with his grandparents until she remarried. During the second World War, Bobby produced moonshine in the mountains of Floyd County and transported it to the coal mining towns of West Virginia and the war industries near Washington and Norfolk, Virginia. His partners from those days include several stock car legends, including Curtis Turner.
Smith's debut came in 1949, when he competed in the series' debut at Charlotte. Starting positions in the thirty-three car field are unknown, but Smith had a decent race and wound up 19th. He wasn't able to improve upon that later in the year at Hillsboro, crashing to 21st.
Smith's other two races came in 1950, starting the year off at Martinsville. Another 21st place finish was in store for Smith after an engine issue. Things were even worse for Smith in the inaugural Southern 500, struggling to a 42nd place finish.
After the end of his racing career, Smith returned to Southwest Virginia. He and his wife, Eula Gay, eventually settled in the Montgomery County community of Riner and raised a son and three daughters. During the sixties and seventies, he operated a dump trucking business with his son. After selling the business, he retired. He passed away on February 26, 1997 from a heart attack brought on by a lengthy battle with lung cancer. He is survived by four children, nine grand children and eight great-grandchildren at last count.
