Bill Ervin's most successful races came on short track where finishes of 18th-place were considered to be routine. His weakness was dirt tracks; where he would find himself finishing in a humbling 26th place on average.[2]

The #31 Newman Long-owned Ford vehicle would become the primary vehicle of Bill Ervin during his NASCAR Cup Series career.[3]
