This is the early 80's because Red's Kagle was the crew chief and either Bobby Ballantine or Frank Plessinger owned it and Red's did not start this crew chief deal until afterhe retired from driving in 1980. Charlotte and Daytonawhere the only races they went to. There where some other good drivers in this car toolike Rodney Combs, Neil Bonnet and Bobby Allison. Bobby Ballantine started driving this and he had 2 big wrecks. One bad oneat Charlotte and one really bad one at Daytona, I think it was 1981 where heflipped and was half way out of thecar and had a great picture center foldclip in Stock Car Racing Magazinewith about 6 pictures and it looked like he would not come out of this ok. I'll bet Dave Fulton could find the pictures and post them like he always does. Thanks, Mike
