I just found this thread from a link from another message board. Don't mean to put a stick in your spoke, but this is a photo of the Nashville,...
Slim didn't win the first race at the Fairgrounds, he won the first stock car race held in Nashville at Cumberland Speedway on 9th Avenue. They...
AJ also won the Atlanta 500 the first weekend in April before turning the car over to Donnie Allison at Martinsville. Pearson didn't get behind...
Wayne Brockman drove a #42 Ford in the ARCA race at Salem on 8/21/66. Think it might be him?
USAC stocks didn't run at Hanford after 1965. It's 1968, because he ran number 3 in '67 and number 4 in '69. Could it be New Bremen, OH? Al ran...
Just for i.d. purposes, #3084 with the #112 and the #22 is from the 1984 All-American 400. Balough in the 112 started on the pole and led 297 of...
Except that it says "Butch Lindley" on the door. And except that DW didn't start wearing the Pepsi yellow driving suit until 1983 and the Cavalier...
Oh yeah. Like it was yesterday. We were packed to leave for Daytona for the Firecracker and the photographer called my parents and said to have...
It's 1964, the first year they ran the full-bodied cars at Nashville. And here's the reason I know this. I've never posted this before, but here...
Allstar, 3048 is indeed the Nashville Fairgrounds in either 1974 or 1975. Darrell Waltrip in the Harpeth Ford #84, Jerry Lawley outside in the 4,...
Don't know where you are looking, but it is 1963. This is the race where Tiny Lund went into the billboard in turn 3 and had a pretty big fire....
Here are three from the 1978 Marty Robbins 500. The Yee 33 leads Don Biederman and Mike Miller. It could be either Danny Byrd or Junior Hanley...
Thanks k9racer - that's exactly the kind of info I'm looking for on the #52. Some more from the early eighties: Buddy Schrock, after driving the...
I'm pretty sure this is Bobby Dotter. Or maybe Bob? [IMG] Looks like the name on the door says Greg Guzzo, but he must have been a dnq, because...
Here's more. And some of these I don't remember who they are. Hey, it was only 30 years ago! My guess - Dennis Vogel? [IMG] Just for you Lugs,...
Here you go. Bobby in victory lane with his quarter mile car. Bobby Jr. told me this car still sits on jack stands just as it came off the track...
I don't think so. Jimmy never ran an A-A 400. He only ran two races at Nashville that weren't Cup races after 1975. A late model race in May of...
Just for Hanley 72: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
I'm gonna post some pics from Nashville in the 80s. Some of the drivers I remember, some, especially if they weren't local, I don't have a clue....
Not dirt, but how about one from Daytona? Best I can tell, this is from 1973, when he finished 18th. [IMG]
Here are a couple of more I found when I ran across the one of Les posted above. Iggy Katona [IMG] Race winner Andy Hampton: [IMG]
Does this happen to be the "Les" of whom you are speaking? [IMG]
With all the Louisville photos posted lately I thought I'd post this brochure I found the other day. Any of you guys know what year this might...
I just found a box with some Beach slides in it. It had fallen behind a filing cabinet. Here is one of maybe the pace lap, but doesn't look like...
Here's a photo of Jody making a pit stop in that car in the '74 Atlanta 500. [IMG]
The cars line up on the front straight at the Nashville Fairgrounds. Andy Granatelli set the "world record for a rocket car" on this track in 1946...
This is from the mile dirt track at the Nashville Fairgrounds. Local driver Bob Reuther is in one of the cars. He couldn't remember which one. All...
From the track in Oakland, CA, in the early 1940's. [IMG] [IMG]
Had to be sure we were still on page 43. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
It's page 43 of this thread. How can there not be more pics like this? [IMG] Or this? [IMG] Maybe this: [IMG]
