Show Notes
in racing as the son of one of NASCAR’s independent drivers and team owners, Ed Negre.
Norman remembers how an impromptu chance behind the wheel of his dad’s car in practice settled once and for all the question of whether or not HE would ever drive himself.
Norman gives us an inside look at the first Winston Cup start of Dale Earnhardt’s career.
We then dig into the April 13, 1978 issue of Grand National Scene.
Darrell Waltrip and Benny Parsons swap the first and second positions at Darlington and then Bristol … where Benny got an assist … as usual … from John Utsman.
Lennie Pond looks forward to a new ride with team owner Harry Ranier and crew chief Herb Nab. Dave Marcis tries to soothe the savage beast that was Buddy Baker at Darlington and Gene Granger has features on young independent driver Bill Elliott and his boy … David Pearson.
