If anyone would like to join that group, please let me knwo and I can add you on Facebook to a group called "NASCAR History Until 1972" and me and some buddies I've fuond through the internet share this stuff back and forth. Igather much of this from them.

Here is your photo of the day!! This is from the 1968 Fireball 300 at Asheville-Weaverville Speedway. David Pearson won teh race either winning the poll, leading all the laps, and winning, or leading all but like 2 laps.

This was back when a man couldn't be scared of washing dirt stains out of his pants to change tires.
