As this site has drawn fewer and fewer visitors and more and more bots, I truly miss the participation of many of those who literally lived racing's formative years. James contributed a lot to RacersReunion. A life well lived. He will be missed.
I've hit a wall. I've searched a million didn't ways, sources, and papers to no avail. I even tweeted Andy Houston, Tommy's son, asking him if they had any info about the race with Tommy having won it. So far, nothing.
The only thing I've got anecdotally is a note from Chris Hussey, the long-time NASCAR crewman and crew chief. He said if it was a Hickory summer race, it was DEFINITELY a Saturday night.
