Doug Richert Autographs
Douglas T. Richert (born June 14, 1960) is an American stock car racing crew chief who works for MBM Motorsports as the crew chief of their No. 66 car in the NASCAR Xfinity Series.
Richert was the youngest crew chief to win a NASCAR Cup Series championship when he won it in 1980 with Dale Earnhardt at Osterlund Racing at age 20. It was also his first season as a crew chief. He continued as crew chief for Earnhardt's No. 2 car when the team was sold to Jim Stacy. He later crew chiefed for Junior Johnson & Associates, Baker-Schiff Racing, Donlavey Racing, Hess Racing, Diamond Ridge Motorsports, Larry Hedrick Motorsports, LJ Racing, Robert Yates Racing, PPI Motorsports, Roush Racing, Red Bull Racing, Dale Earnhardt, Inc., Gunselman Motorsports, Robby Gordon Motorsports, Keyed-Up Motorsports, TRG Motorsports and BK Racing in the Cup Series and then Tullman-Walker Racing in the Xfinity Series.
Richert is best known for winning the Cup championship with Dale Earnhardt in 1980. He started out working for Rod Osterlund as a 16-year-old in 1976. Richert had gone to High School in San Jose with Osterlund's daughter who dated one of his friends, who was interested in racing. Richert got interested in building dirt cars because his friends were, and one thing lead to another. In late 1976, he got the chance to move east with Roland Wlodyka who was forming a Cup team, initially living in a trailer on the property at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Osterlund bought the team in late 1977, and campaigned it with Dave Marcis in 1978, followed by Dale Earnhardt who went on to win the NASCAR Winston Cup Rookie of the Year in 1979. In May 1980, Crew Chief Jake Elder left the team, and Richert who was still 19, replaced him. Richert may have inherited the job in the beginning, but he earned it fair and square when he went on to win the championship with Earnhardt. Midway through 1981, Osterlund sold his team to J.D. Stacy, and Earnhardt moved to Richard Childress Racing taking Richert with him. At the end of 1981, Richert left to take a position with Junior Johnson. From 1984 to 1986, he was the Crew Chief for Neil Bonnett in the No. 12 Budweiser car.
