Anyone else watching?

Waltrip chasing Earnhardt in the closing laps, used his bumper to pass, then DE hits him in the right bumper and wrecks them both. Kyle Petty sneaks through for the win.

I watched it yesterday on Fox. Man those cars look slow. And Kyle's car was the only one that didn't look totaled.

<<<<<< watched it.

That was right in my NASCAR wheelhouse. Was into it from mid 80s to early aughts.

Surprised they didn't edit out the Confederate flags and tobacco advertising.

Watched this live as a kid. Always had a soft spot for miller high life because my grandfather drank ponies when fishing.

The drivers back then were so much tougher with charisma & attitude.So many of them had that IT factor compared to these youngsters today. Back then Bobby Allison was my favorite.
