Winston Cup

The highlight of Marcis' career as an owner-driver was winning at the old Richmond Fairgrounds in 1982 driving a very un-raceable looking 71 Chevy Malibu, sponsored by J. D. Stacy.[2] Marcis was a lap down, but made up the lap when the race leader Joe Ruttman spun out and Marcis passed him.[2] All three drivers that were ahead of Marcis pitted and he assumed the lead as it began to rain.[2] The race was called complete as darkness set in, and Marcis was declared the winner.[2] Marcis described the win, "I wasn't praying for rain, but I told the guys when I got out of the car (during the break before the race was canceled) that if the good Lord wanted to help an independent, this was his chance."[2] "It was one of my greatest moments in racing," Marcis said. "I had even built my own engine for that race."[2]
