Stock Car Racing History
For some reason, Hamilton came to mind almost immediately, even though it was entirely a wild guess. When I saw Mikey's pic, I felt, ah, that is more likely given he lived there and all but surprised it was Hamilton after all.

Very sad. I have a lot of respect for those who drive those things.

Stock Car Racing History
A road race with a light sports car like that against big, heavy land yachts. It's a surprise anyone else even led any laps lol.
Awesome pics, thanks for sharing.

Yea, I think ARCA is the only top stock car series anymore that still has different year models running on the track.
Although, it is cool that you presently have both the Chevy Impala and the Camaro on track in the Nationwide Series.

It's pretty cool how Richard and Kyle each won the first race on Dover's two incarnations.
I quite like that picture of the old asphalt Dover with lane markings. I wish they'd paint lane markings on tracks again. It looked cool and imparted a real sense of speed that you just don't get otherwise with most camera angles they use today to make sure the sponsor logos don't get blurred. Among active tracks, Pocono is the only one that has it and you sure can tell they're going fast because of them.
I'm not sure where I heard it but didn't the blue line start out as black first?
And I had no idea the straightaways were flipped either.

Given all that he has written about the Frances in his book, it's a safe bet that Smokey will never get nominated.
