Sterling ran his first ever Nextel Cup race in 1976.

He went on to win the 500 in the following year, becoming only one of three drivers to win consecutive Daytona 500s. Sterling won two more times during the 1995 season and finished a career high third in the point standings.

In 2001 Chip Ganassi bought a controling interest into the team Sterling Marlin was racing for. As well as the managment change, the former Chevy based team switched over to Dodge. Dodge had returned to NASCAR that year after a long absence and Sterling scored their first win at Michigan International Speedway in August. He went on to score another victory at Charlotte in October and equaled his best career finish in the points (third).Marlin scored two victories early in the 2002 season at Las Vegas and Darlington. He lead the points standings for 25 straight weeks before his championship run was cut short by a neck injury in a crash at Kansas Speedway.
