If you've been around NASCAR racing for quite some time, then you might be familiar with the name Waddell Wilson, engine builder, transmission specialist and crew chief... sometimes all at the same time. If you haven't been around that long, then please allow me to tell you more of a man that became a cornerstone of the sport of stock car racing... back when racing was fun. Trouble is, engine builders seldom seem to get much if any credit for their huge contribution to all phases of racing. Those mechanical beasts wouldn't move at all, were it not for the engines that power them. Waddell built the engines!
