With today's August 21, 2017 solar eclipse, a reminder of one that passed over Rockingham in March 1970.
From Chase Whitaker's September 14, 2012 post regarding the Bobby Allison wreck at Richmond on September 10, 1967 while brother Donnie drove Ray Hendrick's modified at Trenton:
Donnie Allison subbed for Ray Hendrick as Hendrick ran his only Grand National race of 1967 - at Richmond in a Cotton Owens Dodge as a teammate to Sam McQuagg. Ironically, it was that Richmond race that Donnie's brother Bobby went through the Richmond fence in J.D. Bracken's #2 Chevelle nearly landing on wife Judy.
