Love this for several reasons. Audi quattro fanatic but also a long term (37 yrs) Merkur owner until recently.

**POINTS STANDINGS and WINS before the 1985 NATIONAL 500 (25 of 28):** #11 Darrell Waltrip (3626pts with 2 wins, GM) #9 Bill Elliott (-30 with 10 wins, Ford) #33 Harry Gant (-176 with 3 wins, GM) #12 Neil Bonnett (-181 with 2 wins, GM) #15 Ricky Rudd (-283, Ford) #5 Geoff Bodine (-374, GM) #7 Kyle Petty (-428, Ford) #44 Terry Labonte (-474 with 1 win, GM) Dale Earnhardt (GM #3) was 10th behind despite his 4 wins because of NINE mechanical DNFs. Bobby Allison (GM #22) was 11th and winless with 3 mechanical DNFs and 3 race-ending crashes. Meanwhile, the best rookie of 1984, Rusty Wallace (GM #2), was 18th after a really bad Summer. The very surprising winner of the Firecracker 400 was Greg Sacks while Cale Yarborough won the Talladega 500. Drivers listed are the season's current top8, last season's top8 plus the rookie of the year before and whatever race winner that doesn't fit any of those 2 descriptions. Yes, I’m using the unsponsored names of the races. In Charlotte’s case, the Memorial Day race is the World 600 while the later one is the National 500.

Where is AJ Foyt??

Can anyone tell me the differences between the contemporary IMSA GT classes? Kinda funky how a Porsche Carrera RSR raced in the same class as Silhouette 200SX's and RX7's. The GTO class seems similar to the GTS but with Ducktails only?

The Audis were never fast, they just hounded you until you wore out your tires, and then they pounced. The were fast at the end a race, but not in the beginning of a race

Bruce Jenner in the pits lol

GRANATELLI foiled again this time by a hood fitting - the win in 73 is spoiled by the Swede Savage accident & aftermath - the '69 win is nice, but asterisk, comes via a backup car

**POINTS STANDINGS and WINS before the 1985 RIVERSIDE 400K (12 of 28):** #44 Terry Labonte (1630pts, GM) #9 Bill Elliott (-19 with 5 wins, Ford) #5 Geoff Bodine (-32, GM) #12 Neil Bonnett (-86 with 2 wins, GM) #11 Darrell Waltrip (-87 with 1 win, GM) #15 Ricky Rudd (-118, Ford) #7 Kyle Petty (-147, Ford) #22 Bobby Allison (-149, GM) #33 Harry Gant (-167 with 1 win, GM) #75 Lake Speed (-174, GM) #3 Dale Earnhardt (-222 with 2 wins, GM) The best rookie of 1984, Rusty Wallace (GM #2), was 13th over 330pts behind after 3 DNFs and 2 more finishes outside the top10. Drivers listed are the season's current top8, last season's top8 plus the rookie of the year before and whatever race winner that doesn't fit any of those 2 descriptions. Yes, I’m using the unsponsored names of the races. In Riverside's case, the earlier race is the Riverside 400k while the later one is the Western 500k.

What a shame! Las Vegas was a NASCAR feuds and 90% of seats was empty!! Most of the drivers unknowed, accidents and bad driving from the start to the finish! IRL was a disaster in its first five years.

For me Road America is one of my favorite tracks

Best race

who is the guy in the corn flakes ad with terry labonte?

RIP Rocky Moran.

the Nissan's scoops are feeding the intercoolers

the lights receive a weight penalty?

Cleveland needs to do this again.

God i miss this quality of coverage

The old pits

I wonder how someone would have felt if he knew his co driver was a tranny

Road America can start 80 cars

The following year i would start vintage racing a 911

1:34:20 Construction of the Society Center (now known as Key Tower) in the background.

announcer paul? absolute jackass .. but great race l miss the old days when drivers were like boxers and cars were pushed to their limits

DIFFEY WAS CALLING RACING EVEN BACK THEN!? DAMN!!

It's highly criminal this isn't apart of Carb Day anymore

I used to go to all these races. When I was young (14) my older cousin and I would get 2 step ladders and a wood plank and put them in an alley on the backstretch and watch the race in the "cheap seats." We literally sat 3 feet from the track and I had a rinking in my ears that lasted for days. I was 28 years old for this race and my wife and I purchased tickets and sat in the grandstands. Lots of great memories at the Trenton Speedway.

I have a question: how is the name of Marlboro Challenge's opening theme that play at 0:44?

These were the dayspring ones

Great to see Mario get his only victory at Indi and to think of some of the others who never won one (Ruby comes to mind) And Granatelli reminds me of FAT CLEMENZA from the Godfather😁😁😁

You know, if you didn't already know John Paul Snr was a waste of human flesh and almost certainly guilty of at least 2 murders, you wouldn't be surprised after watching this would you?

1990’s IMSA: The race is 2.5 hours. I might need a co-driver. 1990’s NASCAR driver: Hold my beer.

He’s not moving Paul because his arm was pinned against the wall

the film’s theme song was “Hey Man,” with music by Stomu Yamash’ta and lyrics by Sammi Abu, but the song is not credited in the picture.

I went to this race, I was 18 years old in ‘99. My brother & I were Earnhardt fans. This is the only race him & I went to together. He passed in 2019, what I wouldn’t give to be able to go back in time & go to a dozen races with him.
