Anyone mention David Pearson ? The silver fox. Will never forget him and Petty wrecking outa 4 at Daytona going for the checkers.
Any Terry Labonte fans? I have an autographed insert card of his I'd be willing to part with for the right $.
My cousin has worked at Daytona International for over 30 years now. My "collection" of classic Nascar Items is my retirement fund.
I shutter to even think what some might pay for some of the items I have.
Not that big into the Cup Series anymore myself. Like others here have posted, the glory days of the real sport are in the past. Kinda reminds me of my favorite line from
Das Boot "Look at these new heroes, all wind and smoke...big mouths..."
I pull for whoever is in the 43 car.
(A.J Almendinger currently) Fell in love with Petty's old Mopar's as a child, and it stuck...
My son, (RMrider in game) and I run a car here in NY, at the Albany/Saratoga Speedway, 4/10th mile paved bull ring and at Devils Bowl in VT. 1/2 mile high banked - being converted to asphalt currently. Those tracks make up the CVRA - Champlain Vally Racing Association. We call em 358 Modified up here. They originated as dirt cars, but all the tracks up here are asphalt or soon to be. We run in the Sportsmen Division. Just way to much cash in the top Division for the type. You know you are in for a rough night when guys are pulling into the track with 2 or more cars in their semi's with Budweiser or Sunoco on the side of the trailer...
Love auto racing, I wish NASCAR could find their roots somehow.
our ride ( last years colors )
