I'm a mopar guy, so for me, King Richard will always be King.

And I liked the movie "Cars". Even though it's a cartoon, when a Petty Blue Superbird is lapping the track, it's gotta be cool!

I liked the old days when they took a car off the production line, put a roll cage in it, and went racing. Hasn't been that since the early 80's.

A friend of mine used to run into Bill Elliot in the hardware store all the time in (I think) Hickory, NC. Said he was one of the nicest guys you'd ever want to meet.

I'm sure TS is probably a goob. I just found him entertaining. It's a long way from Lee Petty, Jr. Johnson, and the like.

Just a few weeks away...and things are starting to get going.
Drove by the track, Talladega, just looking around, stopped by the go-cart track and talked to the owners.
Not alot of busnesses out there yet.
Is coming though...saw a high rise condo site in the works.
Anyway, go-cart owners said their campsites are $350 a week, and they are way down from, and off the main drag or 'The 'Strip'
Said that was cheap, its $700 a week in the premo spots closer to track!
Wow...should have bought land out there when was give away prices.

Still amazed at the number of campers that show up.

Don't panic....
These prices are for full hook up private campgrounds.
The Talladega Track has free camping for all with a ticket in photos above That is what your seeing, the free sites.
Dusty, roudy, noisy, and full of the adventure you came looking for.
