IF YOU PENALIZE MORE THAN ONE AT A TIME THATS MORE MONEY RIGHT????


Current NASCAR

As you noted, Johnny.... no points were docked. That kept the RCR entries in the Championship hunt. Interesting.

25 Years Ago at Talladega - For Cody


Stock Car Racing History

25 years ago at Talladega, Bobby Allison almost wound up in the stands and ushered in the age of restrictor plate racing.

Almost lost in the aftermath of the Allison crash was the feat accomplished by Bill Elliott of Dawsonville, Georgia that same Talladega race weekend. Bill set an all-time 1-lap NASCAR qualifying record unlikely to be broken in my lifetime, what with the various methods of speed reduction at Talladega and Daytona.

May 1, 1983: The King & Phil Parsons remember Talladega for different reasons


Stock Car Racing History

Our Wrangler Jeans V.I.P. suite at the time was a stand alone building past the start finish line (pit road emptied right under our guests noses) at Talladega, going into turn one. Phil's car got really high in the air. It was scary, as was the fire after the car came to rest.

You, Too, Can Own a Race Track

Thanks, PK. On my younger daughter's broken down desktop... they don't use it, but I'm afraid to touch their laptop.

You, Too, Can Own a Race Track


Historic Speedways and Ghost Tracks

This track turns out to be Lobo Speedway, also known as Artesia Speedway.

There is actually a video posted on YouTube of a team that was based there - Sidewinder Motorsports - testing two modifieds in 2007 with the comment that the track was a bit dusty that day.

I'm on a broken down computer right now that won't embed the video, but here is a direct link:
