He had a best finish in 1980 of 13th at Atlanta Motor Speedway. 1981 saw Steve Moore attempting to make the Daytona 500. A 17th-place finish in the First UNO Twin 125 race would not be enough to get into the prestigious event. Moore struggled in 1982, only finishing one of the 4 races that he entered. Steve made two starts in 1983 at Talladega and Michigan. In 1984 Moore once again tried to make the Daytona 500, but was involved in a savage crash in his qualifying race on the 22nd lap.
