1978 Southern 500 from Darlington Raceway | 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.

Those are some real men racing there. They are what made NASCAR great.

Better believe it. Look at the names in this. Just legend after legend. ...nascar will never see this type of star power again .

The big wreck at about 13:40 proved to be a VERY expensive one for D.K. Ulrich, because when NASCAR inspected Ulrich's car after the race, the wreck wound up exposing a nitrous oxide bottle, resulting in him and his team being suspended the rest of the 1978 season.

This is not the TV broadcast with Squire, Stewart, & Economaki. What is this? also why was there a telephone pole in the middle of pit road?
