This week, Georgia Racing Historian Mike Bell a great Georgia racer over at Georgia Racing History .com .
After coming home from the Korean War, W.M. Fulmer first became a driver, but after a scary accident, he would become a successful car owner. In later years, he would become well known as the owner of the first true Chevrolet to win a NASCAR event back in 1952.
This week, we remember Fulmer and his career over at Georgia Racing History .com .
In other news, if you weren't at Gresham Motorsports Park in Jefferson, Georgia last Saturday, you missed some wild action, including a wild ride by Bill Hoose in the Truck division event. You can take a look at the action (and some incredible photos of Hoose's accident by staff photographer Justin Poole ) at our sister site, Raceweek Illustrated .
