- The race you are about to see appear as originally broadcast and may contain imagery that is offensive and doesn't align with NASCAR's values. NASCAR has since permanently banned the display of the confederate flag at all events.
I love how Sir Jackie respected all forms of racing. And Keith as well.
Cars being able to pass at will and no stages! Tell me again how today’s NASCAR is better?
Back then you would have 1 cars 2 laps ahead of everyone and people left at halfway mark.
@@ManMountainMetals Then the best team/driver/car won. There weren’t 36 cars finishing on the lead lap and only a few cars actually competing for the win. Who’s ever out front can’t be passed because of “aero push”? I’ll take one or two cars on the lead lap any day.
@Timster2 back then it pissed people off and they quit watching after 3/4 of a race.
@Timster2 best driver and or team no longer wins because it is entertainment now, oh, and I am not saying it is better now. I was discussing why it changed the way it did.
These guys knew how to drive
this channel is pure gold!!!! classic Nascar is awesome!

Cale Yarborough (#27 Buick) decided to move down to a partial schedule yet still won the Atlanta 500. Morgan Shepherd (Pontiac #5) surprised many when he won the Virginia 500.
Drivers listed are the season's current top8, last season's top8 plus whatever race winner that doesn't fit any of those 2 descriptions. Yes, I’m using the unsponsored names of the races. In Daytona’s case, the opening race was the Daytona 500 while the Independence day one was the Firecracker 400.
Hey, NASCAR, it sure would be nice to run this race on July 4th or the weekend of the 4th again. Moving this race to August was like taking the Southern 500 away from Labor Day Sunday.
Buick And Chevrolet Dominated At Daytona From The 80s And Early 90s Thanks For Uploading

barrett broke the sound barrier? no.
"On December 17, 1979, Stan Barrett attempted to break the land speed record, and the sound barrier in the Budweiser Rocket rocket-powered three-wheel vehicle. His calculated speed was 739.666 miles per hour, (Mach 1.01), which would have made Barrett the first man to break the sound barrier in a land vehicle."
Richard was Petty that day😂had a motor with 100ci bigger than every other driver on track had that V-10 when everyone else had V-8 😂😂
Then how come he didn't win? LOL
