My wife and I were there met the drivers we had a great time I miss her

Near the end of the race when Keith Jackson said the final race of the year, the American 500, taking place 'tomorrow,' that was in context when this race was telecasted, which was on ABC-TV "Wide World of Sports" on Saturday, six days after this National 500 race.

Wendell Scott came in 12th place. This was his last race before he retired. He was a great driver who also encountered allot of racism during his career

[@zcam1969]

Wendell was not in this race he got hurt at Talladega earlier in the year

[@kennethmartin8333]

I see that you knew Wendell a little, was he a nice man? He is my favorite nascar driver, he seemed to me to be a good family man.

Mr. UnRestrictor Plate

[@MrMatthias]

Boy, the more things change, the more they stay the same
Pre-Race inspection failures, restrictor plates on tracks that aren't usually associated with the plates, weird barely explained yellows... It is kinda funny how they say "only two cars are on the same lap" like it's normal, though
What even brought out the yellow there at lap 31?

[@TangoWolf09]

According to Racing-Reference, it was debris

lol the Chevies didn't have to run restrictor plates but Mopar and Ford did. That's because Mopar and Ford stomped Chevy without them.
