1982 Coca-Cola 500 from Atlanta Motor Speedway | NASCAR Classic Full Race Replay

The race you are about to see appear as originally broadcast and may contain imagery that is offensive and doesn't align with NASCAR's values. NASCAR has since permanently banned the display of the confederate flag at all events.

This race is where the footage from Six Pack came from. You can see the 49 and 73 in the beginning taking off.

*POINT STANDINGS and WINS before the 1982 ATLANTA 400 (4 of 30):* #44 Terry Labonte (485 points, GM) #88 Bobby Allison (-3 with 1 win, GM) #47 Ron Bouchard (-55, GM) #98 Morgan Shepherd (-70, GM) #71 Dave Marcis (-75 with 1 win, GM) #43 Richard Petty (-77, GM) #15 Dale Earnhardt (-80, Ford) #28 Benny Parsons (-87, GM) Gant (GM #33 in 10th), Waltrip (GM #11 in 11th with 1 win) and Ridley (Ford #90 in 12th) all had a fairly rough start to the season but showed speed in qualifying and early during races. Ricky Rudd (GM #3) had 2 DNFs in the first 3 races so he’s well down in points. Drivers listed are the season's current top8, last season's top8 plus whatever race winner that doesn't fit any of those 2 descriptions. Yes, I’m using the unsponsored names of the races. In Atlanta’s case, the Spring race is the Atlanta 500 while the Fall one is the Dixie 500.

I dig it. 👏

Brewster Baker started right behind Petty. That car doesn’t show up in the results, so must be they just ran pace laps or a few green flag laps for filming and then pulled off. Watching it again, you see the 49 pull off pit road behind Petty, but as they go to green it’s not there anymore. So yeah, they must’ve just ran it under the pace laps.

Why do some of these cars sound like V6s? Sounds weird

[@stealthbomber2127]

180 degree headers, meaning the headers wrapped around the bottom of the engine in order to equalize exhaust pressure.
