1967 NASCAR Southern 500 at Darlington

[@CudaRebelsAutoModeling426]

Richard Petty's only Southern 500 victory, and his last victory at Darlington. This is the best kind of Nascar racing in my opinion, True and hard till the end!

[@neilcoker7667]

I was at the race that day as a 16 yo. The spectators were let into the pits after the race. What a thrill!

[@davidglaum2538]

The good old days when they had stock cars .

I love it when a car bangs into Tiny Lund, bangs his hood, and just goes back to racing like nothing happened

[@MrChristopherHaas]

he had better driving for JUNIOR

[@MrChristopherHaas]

They ran a 25 lap qualifier with 20 cars that 15 cars finished in lead lap in and Neil Castles won to get in race. Now that’s a race I wanna see

[@lecil2]

This is when racing was RAW!!! These pajama boys like Bubba W could not take this.

[@georgewetzel4380]

Pajama boys - good one!

[@MrChristopherHaas]

I’ve seen soooo many Darlington crashes, the really bad ones on crash reels and none of em are WORSE than McQuagg in the ELVISMOBILE at 12:30.

[@tamtam21801]

Similar impact three years later with Richard Petty

[@Slinger43]

Darlington was none to kind to The King, Richard Petty. He alway's ran strong there, but bad luck alway's befell him & at least one really bad crash there almost did him in back in 1970. Like the narrator said in this video, Richard had this race won a couple of time's before he finally won in 67, and he would go on to losing it again several more time's going forward, but damn this track was mean to him throughout his glorious career, at least he made it through alive! 🙏

[@Slimjim260]

Love Johnny Reb and his Flag!

[@AustinLaPlante]

RIP Junior Johnson...

[@lucaslaino7292]

Petty and pearson Those were the days

[@tamtam21801]

Dang,8 inches of reinforced concrete? That’s HARD. REAL hard.

[@lolbr6818]

That was Bud Moore in 1967?

[@MrChristopherHaas]

It sure is. He finished 5th

[@seannolan9857]

Little Bud Moore that is. Bud Moore the car owner was a good 15 years older.

[@bloqk16]

There was a "Bud Moore" race driver, wore glasses, too. He had the looks of a young college professor. Read about him back in 1968 in Auto Racing Magazine.

[@MrChristopherHaas]

The narrator was a driver. Does anyone know who he is? Whoever he is/was he was a backmarker…

[@tamtam21801]

Idk but abcs version is where the narrator is Jim McKay This narrator is not Jim McKay McKay was older than this narrator

[@MrChristopherHaas]

@@tamtam21801 wondering who in this field of cars is doing the talking here. Obviously it’s an independent.

[@tamtam21801]

idk

[@bloqk16]

This could have been a promotional film produced for Falstaff Beer. Notice the prominent Falstaff logo at the beginning and end of the film.

[@MrChristopherHaas]

@@bloqk16 Falstaff sponsored NASCAR before Winston took over.

[@MrChristopherHaas]

does ANYONE know who is NARRATING this race? its a backmarker that raced the track several years whoever he is

[@tamtam21801]

11:31 this was used for a video and it was deleted

[@MrChristopherHaas]

The ELVISMOBILE is IN the WALL (#6)

[@shel6887]

That was his only win in the southern 500.

[@MrChristopherHaas]

all o& these great cars and driversi count 15 potential winners….if Petty/Chrysler Co hadnt made a farce out of season

[@tamtam21801]

11:32 Sam mcquagg flip

[@sashadala346]
