Doug Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Cleaning out my dad's house found some pictures from 1991 when my friend gave us a tour of Richard Childress's shop where he worked. He was also part of the Flying Aces as a tire carrier during pit stops At the time they had one main shop and a couple out buildings. A small souvenir area and some cars on display. Now the old shop is the museum, The 28 car in one of the pics is an ARCA car the was driven by Charlie Glotzbach. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinfarmer Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 A local farmer here used to own one of the semi tractors that pulled Dale Sr's cars to the races. Not sure if he still has it or not. Back when he bought it, it was just another used semi tractor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually put the last GM Goodwrench hauler in the RCR museum and brought back the retired driver to drive it in the museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Blackstar Posted May 23, 2022 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted May 23, 2022 Blaney on old tires. Hamlin with a pair of new tires. Blaney sails away in clean air. I thought these cars weren't supposed to be so aero dependent? Kyle Busch must be crying. He had the car to beat before he blew the tire. Feel like I wasted my night watching this shitshow.

It's nice to see new owners come into the sport and have success. Just hope there's also longevity with Justin Marks and Pitbull. Seen some owners in the past come in strong and fast and leave just as fast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
