Sam Ard in the Thomas Bros. Country Ham
#00 out of Asheboro, NC gets a nudge from Geoff Bodine driving Emanuel Zervakis'
#99 "White Tornado" out of Richmond, VA as they contest the win in 1981 NASCAR Late Model Sportsman action at Virginia's South Boston Speedway in this Joe Chandler photo for the South Boston Gazette-Virginian. Ironically, Ard would get his only Cup start driving for Zervakis at Martinsville in September 1984 when he finished last after completing just one lap with steering failure.
