Did "you" know
The Rock has a few interesting trivia items about it:Did you you know that this is the first race here since Dale left us?Did you know the name of the bar that has Dales posters hanging on each end of the bar? no? Gold Dust InnThere used to be three things that would get a ruckus started faster than anything,do you know? Politics--Religion--Racing.Do you know who won the last cup race at the Rock?Do you know who won the first race at the Rock?Do you know when track first opened ?Do you know who has the most wins there in cup?Do you know who has the most wins there in bush?Do you know the one major difference in track now and when it first opened?Racing at the Rock was fun,it was fast,it was hard,but most of all it was racing
OK JM, Don't keep us in suspense.........SURVEY SAYS____________________!
OK Johnny i think Curtis Turner won the first race there in a smokey chevy number 13 i think the year was 1965
nope
The Rock was opened with the American 500 in Oct of 1965 and Perry is correct, soon after Turner was re-instated by NASCAR. The track was re-configured to the present higher banking from a less degree banked track as a 500-mile race would take to long to complete...sometime in the early 70's? Who cares who won the last race there! Personally, I love the place and going there allthough it was usually snowing or raining! lol! Anyway, sorry it's no longer fashionable in the money-grubbing NASCAR world to be there.
ok you got as close as you can get to won the last race-------the last race has NOT been run there
Richard Pettyhas the most wins with 11 Cale had 7Mark Martin the most bush wins
