Sisco also managed to earn $251,359 in his seven-year NASCAR career ($1,213,866.58 when considering inflation ).[1] His average starting position is 22nd place while he managed to finish in 19th place on average.[1] Total mileage of all of Sisco's races are 39,186.7 miles (63,064.9 km).[1] Prior to 1971, Sisco participated in a select number of late model stock car races and was the champion of one of them in 1969.
