All I can tell is it's 1969 and the car next to Richard's is Pearsons #17.

This picture was taken in 1969 for a private test for ford. Richard won four races that year driving this Torino. I am not sure which track this is but I will find out and let you know. Does anyone know which track that Richard won his 100th race? The anwser may surprise you.

I earlier stated that Richard had won only 4 races with this car, I meant to say that he had won nine races with the ford. His 100th win came at Bowman -Gray- Stadium in Winston-Salem NC. With all the races that he won with Dodge and Plymouth his 100th came with a Ford and his 200th came driving a Pontiac. The 100th win came on a 1/4 mile track while the 200th came on a 2-1/2 mile track, what a carrer!!!!!
