Cale was asked about the fight at the 1979 awards event in NY. He said with a grin; "Two against one, it wasn't a fair fight. I SHOULD HAVE HAD ONE ARM TIED BEHIND MY BACK!"

[@jonmancill6824]

Dang straight. Im born and raised here in timmonsville South Carolina, hometown of Cale Yarborough, and I live maybe 15 minutes from Darlington raceway. I live only about 5 minutes from where Cale was raised at his parents house. Going the opposite direction I live 5 minutes from where he lived during his racing career. And now he probably lives about 15 minutes away on a much larger piece of land and house. His mom only passed away a few years ago, but she worked three or four days a week at her dry cleaning business in timmonsville up until she was probably 98 or 99 years old. She was an awesome sweet lady. Old Donnie Allison has definitely had a few too bumps to the Head with the way he remembers that 1979 Daytona 500 accident. It's completely obvious that Cale was drafting behind Donnie and was easily going to make the slingshot pass to going for the victory. All you got to do is look and see where Donnie straight up tries to block and run him right down into the grass causing the accident. The wreck is 100% Donnie's fault no two ways about it.

[@altec19]

@@jonmancill6824 Couldn’t have said it better myself !Bobby should have not stopped and made it two against one so unfair Cale Yarborough my all-time favorite NASCAR driver !

[@jonmancill6824]

​@@altec19. I knew his brother JC Yarborough pretty well (I'm not sure if he's still around today considering I haven't kept up with him since he retired more than a decade ago) and I also knew his late mother, but as big of a fan I am of his, how closely we've lived from one another, and to know so many of the same people as each other i hate to say that ive never even met the man. I just didn't want to be one of those annoying fans who irritates his sports hero. The one question I would really love to ask him about isn't NASCAR related surprisingly, but what it was like racing at Indianapolis in the all time greatest era of motorsports of the 1960's and if he met and talked with Jim Clark since they were on the grid together in 1966, which is arguably the best driver line up for the Indy 500 that's even been.

[@CC.94]

​@@jonmancill6824so then you know Cale could whip some ass. Tough as nails ex- football player highly sought after to draft. With all due respect Mr. Allison didn't want no part of it that day or any other. 😅 RIP to Cale: A legend. He'll always be in my top 5. I named my son after him.

[@landonsewell81]

I’ve listened to this interview three times and the thing that gets me about Donnie Allison story is he said he was hurt he lost another Daytona 500 but not mad at the man he said (Cale Yarborough) that caused them to crash, he goes on to say that he and Cale had words and walked away until his brother Bobby pulls up and Cale hits him with his helmet. Ok yeah it was wrong for Cale to hit a man while he was still strapped in his seat l get that, that’s when “And There’s A Fight!” Breaks out between Bobby and Cale. So he’s sitting there telling the world if Cale would have hit him he would have killed him, but you just saw another man hit your brother basically assaulted him with an object the same man wrecked you and kept you from winning The Great American Race and you weren’t mad enough to put hands on him them, but in the past you came and fought for your brother but not this time your words to Cale were Hey if you got a problem I’m the SOB you need to talk to. Once again a man cost you a win assaults your brother and you make a statement l would have killed him if he had put his hands on me…..yeah right!

I had the honor to meet Donnie at Orange County speedway. I was pitting a limited sportsman car that night. Donnie was with his son Ronny Allison. They were nice as they could be . Most of my teammates didn’t know who he was . All l could think of was that 1979 race. He was asking about set ups for Ronny. I’m about 23 at the time. He was trying to to hurry up and get Ronny’s car running better. 1992 . Never forget that. 😊👍legend…Donnie

[@uniqueone2731]

Could not say it better myself.

[@gregmorris6604]

Well Donnie's ego is still intact after all these years. You would have to be an old timer to appreciate that. Its no insult. In 1979 I was working in Texas and you couldn't get a race on TV or the radio. Just tidbits of highlights on wide wide world of sports sometimes. Being from NC and growing up always listening to the races on the radio and being somewhere you couldn't even get it sucked. But they had a race at College Station Texas so we decided to go. I'm 19 years old living life wide open drinking every day. We get there and was almost the only ones sitting in the grandstand in front of the start finish line. Texas didn't care about it back then. I got up once to go get more beer and fell down the stands over the only people sitting in front of us. Bobby had trouble with his car early it sounded like a bad valve. Turns out it was a spark plug. After the Race we stopped at a seafood restaurant to eat. They didn't open for about 30 more minutes so we waited. I noticed as a car pulled up beside us that it resembled Bobby Allison. Then he got out and I saw his name on his leather belt so me and my buddy I had gone to Texas with started getting out quick to meet Bobby. My buddy falls on his face getting out. Bobby had sat on the edge of a flower wall and he laughed and told Arnie " first step is hell ain't it?" We sat down and Bobby was always my favorite driver growing up. That Coca Cola Chevrolet!! So what is the first thing I asked Bobby Allison? It seemed like a sensible question in my head until it started past my lips. I asked this man could Cale Yarbourgh hit hard. Yea I'm drunk not thinking through my words clearly. He looks and me said "Yea when the son-of-a-bitch has a helmet in his hand" Then he starts laughing and wants to know what we are doing in Texas. He recognized our accent right off. We had a great time talking to him and he was really neat. That is how I know about the spark plug cause he told us when we asked about the car popping. It was Bobby, his wife and younger son Clifford. When we went to leave ( and eating a meal and sobering up some was what we badly needed) he waved us over and wished us well and told us to be careful. I have always been embarrassed by how I asked that question even now. But that fight was huge. We got to see it on TV even in Texas.

[@chrishedge887]

NASCAR really dropped the ball not having more races there at the College Station speedway

[@plantfeeder6677]

Ya Bobby was great. He was probably the most versatile driver of his era. Used to go to Ontario in California for the LA Times 500 back in the mid-'70s and there couldn't been more than a couple a thousand people spread all over that place. It held 150,000 and you could sit anywhere you wanted pretty much. Saw Bobby win there in 1978 only it wasn't no rot your gut Chevolet he was driving. It was the late great Bud Moore's #15 Ford Torino that he put in victory lane many times in his 3 year stint with him including the 1978 Daytona 500.

[@johnhughes2043]

The ‘79 race WAS the most important race in NASCAR history. It’s what set the stage for for the true “golden age” of big time stock car racing. Bobby, Donnie and Cale weren’t my favorites but they put the game on the map doing what all of these guys did week in week out. Donnies insight and struggles through his and his families careers through these rough and raw times in racing is astounding. He’s a hell of a guy and thanks to everyone @ Dirty Mo for giving him the time and the place to educate all of those who didn’t know what true stock car racing was and where it came from. Today racing is even close!

[@edmondcamp2878]

Cale won 83 races and three consecutive championships and Donnie won 10 races and no championships so who’s the better driver? Plus Donnie was always needing a relief driver. He won won the 1970 world 600 but Leroy Yarbrough had to finish it for him. He won at Talladega in 1977 but Darrell Waltrip had to finish the race for him. Here’s a guy that talks about he should of won this or should have won that and how tough he is and didn’t even have the stamina to finish a race. Cale was in 560 races and never needed a relief driver.

[@EclecticHillbilly]

Cale led all 500 laps of a Bristol race back when Bristol was asphalt and they ran in the daytime summer heat............and Cale was the only driver in the field who didn't have a relief driver that day.

[@mikeyoungblood1642]

You have to understand where Donnie is coming from. He already had to live in the shadow of his Brother. Cale took the Daytona 500 from Donnie in 1979. Like he said in the interview he was HURT like hell losing Daytona 500…so while all you said is true, doesn’t mean Donnie can’t have his opinion. And he is in the HOF as well ON HIS OWN.

[@edmondcamp2878]

@@mikeyoungblood1642 I know Donnie has had to live in Bobby’s shadow and that can be rough and I’m not going to agree with you or you’re not going to agree with me but Donnie came down on Cale and forced him to the bottom of the track and Cale lost control of the car. As far as Bobby goes Donnie said him and Cale had pretty much got through arguing then Bobby showed up. Jeff Hammond said Bobby can hoop and holler all day long that he just stopped to offer Donnie a ride that Bobby just wanted to stick his nose where it didn’t belong. However the best line came from Junior Johnson when he said I don’t care if they kill one another my cars tore up lol.

Donnie Allison is full of it. He came down a full car length into Cale. And talking about killing Yarborough in a fight, he would have needed some luck and a few more brothers since Yarborough was a golden glove boxing competitor which is a high level. Cale would have put him down one on one.

donnie allison couldnt outdrive or out fight cale yarborough.

Donnie's talking and you can hear a pin drop . That is respect.

[@krogersucks45]

He hit you in the back because you ran you ran Cale into the grass , ( look at the video) Then Bobbie stop because Cale was gonna put a beatin on you. You couldn't hold Cale's jock strap on your best day.

If you want info on the 1979 season, read the book "He crashed me, so I crashed him back" by Mark Bechtel

Back when NASCAR was worth watching,real men driving real cars for big money but not insane amounts. Big personalities without corpospeak restrictions. Haven't watched in years just more sportsball anymore

Best part of that whole deal with Cale, Bobby and Donnie was Bobby sayin’ “Cale hit me while I was still in my car and I thought to myself… I’m gonna get out of this car and handle this right now or run from him the rest of my life. And with that, Cale went to beatin’ on my fist with his nose.” That was the best part in my opinion.
