He completed in 318 Sprint Cup Series events in his career, earning forty-eight top-fives, 127 top-tens, two poles, and five top-ten point finishes.[1] Sears was known for driving his salmon-colored #4 car that he personally owned. He debuted in Savannah driving John Black's #81 to a decent eighth-place finish. The best points finish for Sears is fifth which he achieved back-to-back in 1967 and 1968. He retired after a dismal 1973 season in which he was plagued with engine and mechanical failures.
