The top 11 all time covers 3 wins and up and not a single part-timer in the list. Gordon first at 9, Smoke at 8, Rudd and Rusty with 6, Bobby Allison, DW and Chase with 5, Richmond, Kyle, Truex with 4, Mark Martin, The King, David Pearson, Cale with 3

Dan Gurney won 5 NASCAR GN races out of the 16 total GN races he ran, making him a part timer. All his wins came at Riverside. 6 times he ran Daytona (400 & 500), once at Atlanta and 9x at Riverside, with one being in 1980 when he was 49. That one aside, he won 5 of 8 at Riverside. Dan the Man!
So to your point, there are no Dan Gurneys around anymore.
AJ Foyt has one win at Riverside in 8 starts but has 7 NASCAR GN wins and he's batting 1.000 at Le Mans with Dan!
