My Favorite Nascar Story Of All
General
Seen this Legends Roundtable on TV a few years ago. It was great, I laughed so hard. The best stories was this one from Buddy and Cale and Jr talk about Jr getting out of a crashed plane. So funny to hear them go at each other. Thanks for posting.

I wish him luck, hope he gets to the bottom of whatever the issue is and can calm down. He gonna work his way to a early heart attack if he don't. Good luck Kurt!
.CAN YOU COMPARE DRIVERS OF DIFFERENT ERAS

Anyone have the picture of Skip trapped in his car after the T-Bane crash with Joe Frasson at Darlington? If my memory is right, he looked like he was smiling at the camera while the safety crews were trying to cut him free. Heard the bars wrapped around his legs and he couldn't get out.
Do know how true it is but I heard Joe said he was looking at the crowd as he approached turn one and when he looked up Skip was right in front of him.

I see no way to compare todays driver and teams with the ones from years ago. Putting it simply, todays drivers and teams can't compete with my memories. Even if everything was the same the memories from my younger days would far exceed what I witness today.

Great to hear Neils voice again, even if he is singing.

Here are 2 pictures of the the Monte Carlos raced in 1985 and 1986 I think. Look at the valance on them and see the difference.

Looking at your pictures I see just where part of the problem started. The top picture of #95 shows the front valance cut off at the rubber skirt and the chin spoiler is there. The bottom picture of the Petty #6 shows the rubber skirt at the bottom of the valance in place and the chin spoiler is not needed anymore. Before the chin spoiler had to be a minimum of 4" off the ground and with the rubber skirt in place the cars were a little lower than that. I think some other models had at this time still had chin spoilers but NASCAR soon allowed all cars to completely box off the nose.

Great points. All these rules make me wish for the old days even more.
