They were racing in packs faster than any stock car could set a qualifying lap record By quite a bit The worst thing about nascar is how it ruined other racing series just prior to ruining itself. I used to watch EVERYTHING, I lived in Charlotte during this time and I’d attend every race at every venue at CMS even ALMS on the road course and IRL before the bad accident that killed fans. NASCAR ruined tv deals, priced smaller teams out of existence and regulated the most boring racing imaginable. I miss racing but not enough to share my money or time with three team owners and a bunch of crybaby drivers.

Great Race. Why not just leave Bristol as dirt. Not like anyone is showing up for the Cup or Xfinity races with the concrete surface and all they do is complain about the configuration of the track not being the old Bristol. Switch it to dirt have the dirt late models, sprint cars and modifieds have a few races here each year, and NASCAR can achieve their goal of having a cup race on dirt.

Clearly the Seth dude is a moron or way to young to even know anything about this race. The main reason they won't ever do it again is because of the speeds they was turning back then compared to what they would turn now and it is to much of a hassle the amount of time and money it would take to fill with dirt and take the dirt back out won't be covered by pit passes general admission food/beverage sales and being televised. Simply put not enough money and way to dangerous. Even back then they wouldn't let people sit in the first 20 or so rows of seats Because they was worried about a car flipping through or over the fence because they was so fast.

4:04 "no they'll. they'll come down somewhere near kingsport if they touch"

That rear view camera showing them drive through that roost dust really shows the speeds they're going as opposed to the camera that just shows them from the stands. The stand camera shows a better race angle but the speed angle is that rear view camera.

I wish they would clay Wall Stadium in Belmar, NJ just once for a special event like Bristol did.

Nobody was going a touch swindell on this day

Had a friend who attended the first dirt race at Bristol and he told me that the first day they were sliding all over the place trying to get the cars set up right. The second day they figured it out and were flying around the track breaking lap records.

I remember reading during time trials 180 mph down the straights was a common occurrence. No wonder they won't go back here.
