There were so many ways it was going to go down too though.... Joe Gibbs, Furniture Row, maybe the Burger King team.... but nothing could come to fruition.

Here is a flashback photo for you guys today.... Richard Petty in a 1969 Torino "Cobra" at Riverside in 1969.




They used a Ranchero bumper because the Ranchero had turn signal slots in the front bumper... those slots were used for brake cooling.

I guess they might eb scared since Petty was running his first race in a Ford that he might forget what kind of car it was, so they put that "FORD" logo on the back window so he knew what he was driivng.


And I also like those original "soft" walls. Dan Gurney backed his car up on top of one of those things, momentum carried it back off a few seconds later, then his car landed and he took off.... went into the pits to get the car inspected, and kept racing.
