Legacy
Crawford does hold the current record for most starts in the Camping World Truck Series. He raced in 210 consecutive races before missing the 2005 Built Ford Tough 225 race at Kentucky due to injuries sustained from a hard crash in practice. He had not missed a race since that date until failing to qualify at Daytona in February 2011. Prior to 2011, Crawford was one of the few drivers in the history of the sport with more than 50 starts who has never raced in any major series in NASCAR other than the Truck Series. However, that statistic was ended in 2011, when Crawford made his Nationwide Series debut driver for Jennifer Jo Cobb Racing at Chicagoland Speedway.
He is a regular weekly guest on The Morning Drive on Sirius NASCAR Radio, Channel 128. On March 2011 Rick Crawford entered a multi-year contract to be the promoter and manager at Mobile International Speedway, His home track, in Irvington (Mobile), Alabama.
