I can remember when they used masking tape on the head lights and towed the cars to the race, then folded up the tow bar for the the race.
I remember when Marshall Teague and his "Fabulous Hudson Hornet" were the terror of the circuit. The Hudson sported a straight line 6 with three duces and could whip about anything on the road.
Stock car, meant stock car and in the 50's you could be driving down main street with just about what they were running on the tracks.

Sounds like you remember running shine too. :tongue::biggrin::tongue:
Ernie, are they getting that Louisville speedway fixed for traffic? I'd like to see some Aerial photos of that.
RV is a good way to go. Get there early, and enjoy the experience. :wink:
LOL, that's right...:biggrin: spend another night. The roads SHOULD be cleared.RV is a good way to go. Get there early, and enjoy the experience. :wink:
Then stay late to sober up! :biggrin:

I had a 62 Chevy Impala myself 2 door hardtop. The only problem with the 409 was keeping the damned thing in tune - It would get out of it's own way when it was tuned....Just wish that big money sponsorship hadn't made racing .....boring...

Running shine in a 62 Chevy Impala with a 409 and Tri power, they came close a couple of times but they never got me!:glasses-cool:
Since this is a NASCAR thread...
What's the feelings on bringing back the #3 in the Nationwide Series? Austin Dillon, Richard Childress's grandson and 2011 truck champion will be driving it. Sponsored by Advocare. (my company)
I'm all for it. That boy proved himself in trucks, and he should do as well in Nationwide series. The #3 cup car is reserved for Jr. to run some day. I think Dale would approve of both deals. I also think there are a lot of us that would like to see a 3 back on the track, but not with just ANY driver. Dillon is Childress' grandson, and we all know who Jr. is.

Ya know I've been to Murray, KY - about 1992, came out there on vacation and stayed right on Barkley Lake or Lake Barkley whichever it is not too far from Murray and went in to Murray a couple of times.I made one load for some of my Kin around '61. I found real quick that I didn't have the nerve for the work. I was positive that every man, woman child, dog and cat, maybe even the mailboxes were revenuers. Good money even by today's standards, but not the right work for a prison coward. This was drinking shine by the way. If you did not know the difference, you shouldn't have been drinking any. This was prime "Golden Pond" product. Hard to find any better anywhere. Now Ken and Andy may have their own opinions on the quality of their own local stuff cause they made some fine whiskey also.

So who's gonna win the championship this year? Do y'all think Mr 5 time will make it 6?

I think it will be a first time champion this year.
Tony will be strong again but I don't think he will do two in a row. Maybe last years runner up...Carl Edwards.

That's just how classy Richard is. I would love to spend some time with him. Your company picked the right ride. Hope they all do well this season.I'm all for it.

I actually spoke with Richard Childress back in January and he stated that he had a "conversation" with Jr before doing this. Richard owns the number but he had enough respect to speak to Jr first.
WAY to soon for me to answer that one. But, my money's on Jr.So who's gonna win the championship this year? Do y'all think Mr 5 time will make it 6?
Sounds like a good plan Ernie. I know you'll be alright.LOL, that's right...:biggrin: spend another night. The roads SHOULD be cleared.RV is a good way to go. Get there early, and enjoy the experience. :wink:

My plan is to get there a day early. There will be about 15 of us with 6 r.v.'s. I'll also let all the idots clear out and drive home, probably about 3am or 4am. But if the tequila is flowing, it will be an all-weekender:biggrin:

As much as I hate this guy, it's hard for me to pick him, but Kyle Busch is my pick. Hater's are Motivater's!!!
