Ricky Rudd net worth and career earnings: Ricky Rudd is a retired American NASCAR driver who has a net worth of $30 million dollars. Born in Norfolk County, Virginia, Ricky Rudd began racing go-karts and motorbikes while in junior high, and then switched to stock cars when he was eighteen years old. He would race part-time on the NASCAR circuit for the first two years of his career, before focusing on it full-time beginning in 1977.

Over the course of his career racing in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, he had twenty-three wins, 374 Top Ten finishes, and twenty-nine poles. In 1983, he also raced in the Nationwide Series, and had one win, one Top Ten finish.
