Your story reminded me of something that happened to Kyle Petty a few years ago. It was at Darlington. Jimmie Johnson's car was parked next to Petty's in the garage. Kyle was in the garage talking to someone. After the guy left, one of Johnson's crewmembers walked over to Kyle and said, "Who was the old guy?" Kyle just looked at him and said, "That old guy has won more races here than anyone alive."
It was David Pearson.
That's the problem today. You show some of these new guys photographs of the people who built this sport and I bet nine out of ten couldn't name five out of ten in the photos. What a shame that is. And what a shame it is that Bobby Allsion is left to do what he's doing.
I bet Kevin Harvick won more money winning the Daytona 500 than Allsion won in his career.
I'm glad you told that story.
