HISTORY Morgan-McClure Motorsports was formed in 1983, when Larry McClure, Ed McClure, Jerry McClure, Teddy McClure and Tim Morgan bought a car from G.C. Spencer. Larry McClure and Morgan had been long-time business partners, operating a successful automobile dealership which they continue today. One of the team’s first drivers was a then 24-year-old Mark Martin. The team first broke into the win column in 1990 with driver Ernie Irvan, marking the beginning of an eight-year run during which the team won 14 races – including eight superspeedway wins – between 1990-98. Among those wins were three at the Daytona 500, with Irvan in 1991 and consecutive titles in ’94 and ’95 by Sterling Marlin. The ’95 season by Marlin also gave the organization its best finish in the championship when he finished third.
