ANYBODY else would have had to negotiate a penalty stop.
Ain't nothing wrong with old Pontiac's. Firebirds,Bonnevilles and of course the GTO's. Old Grand Prix are some good looking cars too. Some real mean American muscle. Especially those Pontiac engines built by Butler Performance in Lawrenceburg.My favorite drivers have all retired LOL. I used to pull for Rusty Wallace when he drove the Miller Genuine Draft Pontiac, and Bobby LaBonte when he drove the Interstate Batteries Pontiac. Yeah, I was a Pontiac fan.
I have a 1980 TransAm that I pulled the 301 Pontiac engine from and built a 455 and replaced it with. Bored .030 over, 6x heads, 278 duration cam. With street tires I ran 8.80 in the 1/8 mi with it at the local strip.
I had been to Talladega a few times but one year I wanted to get closer to the action. Got a seat on the front row near start/finish. Couldn't see the whole track, but it was AWESOME. Especially when Gordon was in the lead and Earnhardt was literally tapping his bumper down the strait!
I saw a bunch of races in eerie when I lived in Denver
I've never been to Colorado National Raceway in Denver. Been past it many times. Just never liked to spend much time there.
Darrel Waltrip was my favorite driver!I watched Nascar when the Allision brothers,Cale Yarbourgh,Richard Petty,Dave Pearson and many others were racing.Some of the most unbeliveable crashes ever in those days!
Yeah, those were the good days.
Good days, when folks just didn't judge you by race or race car.
Absolutely,no longer watch
Same here. Too many rules, cars have no character, they went way off track.
You know, I looked at the cars in the race, and the only difference was the decals. back in the day, you could tell a chevy, ford, dodge,. Now they all look the same, kinda like bingo balls running on a track with different tattoos.
