Great video ! I used to love to go see Richie when he'd come to North Carolina to race . Him and Sam Ard were my favorites .

I watched Richie race every weekend at Utica Rome speedway. His small garage was on Dominick st. Rome NY The sign at the speedway had his orange 61 race car on top. Just so you know the paint color was not gmc orange it was The paint from the Rome DPW the color of there trucks.also he was really from westernville NY just up the road and he started drag racing first at Utica Rome speedway. His #61 is also retired from Nascar the only one he was inducted to the Hall the first year it opened along with petty he's the only driver from outside of the sanctioned stock car body to be inducted can tell you lots of stories Richie was one cool dude. This is what made Richie Richie he was good you knew he was good he knew he was good but it didn't put a chip on his shoulder
