    Cale Yarborough wins the 1983 Daytona 500. Cale breaks the 200 MPH mark during his first lap of qualifying but flips his car on the 2nd lap. His mangled car was unable to start the race and the record qualifying attempt was disallowed giving Ricky Rudd the pole with a speed of 198.864 MPH. The race was a competitive one with 59 lead changes and noone leading more then 53 laps. The early leaders of Richard Petty, Kyle Petty, Geoff Bodine, and Dale Earnhardt all had engine problems during the race. Late in the race only 4 drivers found themselves on the lead lap: Buddy Baker, Cale Yarborough, Joe Ruttman, and Bill Elliott. On the final lap Yarborough slingshots past Baker to capture the win and Bill Elliott edges out a 3-wide battle for second.
    Time of race: 3:12:20

    Pole Speed: 198.864 mph

    Cale’s car was sitting in front of a Hardee’s just days before the race, that’s the stuff of legends.

    This is beautiful. Back when the cars looked like the cars they were supposed to be. I see Chevy, Ford, Pontiac, etc, and I don't have to look at the name to know what it is.

    One of my favorite 500's. Cale takes the CBS camera to the winner's circle. I think this was the first race where the commentators could talk to a driver in a car. They asked Cale how things were going during one of the caution periods, and he said "things feel pretty good, so I'm going to take it to the front and see how it feels there". And that's what he did on the next green. That was a man who knew his business!

  • @losferwords100

    Not to be that guy to kill the fun but he's imitating the sound of the engine to combat g-forces. Back in these days, jet pilots would do similar exercises to combat the effects of high G's, anything you can do to maintain your blood flow and breathing, likely where he learned it from. That's why he only does it in the turns because that's where you're fighting g-forces, not so much on the straights. Still funny to think about. Cale Yarborough, one of the most legendary drivers in Nascar history, driving around turns going "ARRRRRRRR" like a kid playing with toy cars.

  • @JReaLBiz86

    The fact that Cale was imitating the engine going around the track just reminds me that people who race cars are just big kids with... something similar to a death wish.

    This was TRUE racing at it's finest.The NASCAR of today should revisit all of these historic race videos.Then adjust today's "racing",if that's what you want to call it back to what made racing great.The segment format kills what they call racing.Quite trying to please everyone.If you notice today's races are never sold out,the seats are empty compared to back in the day.Jmo
