I had forgot how crazy it was starting 60 some of those old cars at one time. We were lucky that more of us didn't get killed. Some of these cars were completly demolished. I can remember having a car explode(presurized fuel tank)at Champion Raceway Fayetteville NC and a 36 Ford I crawled out of at Raleigh NC that was destroyed. I'll be 83 this month and lucky to be alive.
You guys were Tough Cookies !!!
Referencing Robbie's post re: Darlington... - 1965 Southern 500 highlights always playup the Cale/Sam McQuagg/Leeroy crash and Ned's huge winning margin. Never much said about the Buren Skeen/Reb Wickersham fatal crash. Quite frankly, I don't like to watch videos or film of fatal crashes like the Don MacTavish crash at Daytona that was played over and over and over. It's a pretty sick feeling, as a lot of you know, to be at the track when a tarp is thrown over a car that has crashed.
