RIP Cale Yarborough. We'll miss you. (1939-2023)

[@szybkiwojtas7895]

Rest in peace Cale! You won't be forgotten.

[@dylantheomega7586]

Way before my time but there will never be another like him. Fly high Cale and keep winning in the tracks of heaven.

[@jeremywilson3684]

A true legendary racer

[@gentjim5007]

Just like Darlington, he was too tough to tame. Short in stature, but a giant of the sport. We'll miss you Cale!

[@PhantomTrap26]

We will miss you Cale rest in peace

[@sprintcar-acematt5175]

Cale was garaged near us at Riverside in 1978 or 1979. I was part of the crew of a Winston West team. I was 20 years old and simply awestruck with all these legends around me, Richard and Lee Petty, the Allisons, and several more. I remember it like yesterday. Thank you Cale for the memories, and thank you and Junior Johnson for introducing some of us west coast guys to real Moonshine. You brought a smile to my face.

[@ethanslife7851]

Rest in peace Cale!

Straight up one of the toughest NASCAR racecar drivers of all time. As a long-time fan of NASCAR, I first learned about NASCAR through Cale Yarborough’s guest appearances on The Dukes of Hazzard tv show in the late 1970’s. His smile and tenacity shown through and made me a big fan of his. I can picture all the great racers in Heaven greeting him with open arms and sitting on a big porch and talking while sitting on rocking chairs, oh I wish I could hear the stories. Thank you for all the great memories, and Godspeed.

[@willhorting5317]

I remember as a kid, listening to NASCAR races on the radio with my grandpa, during Cale Yarborough's heydey. Him, Petty, the Allisons, Junior Johnson, Pearson. Started me as a NASCAR fan. Still a fan today. Likely will be until I either develop dementia, or die.

[@cadillacjohn1994]

We need more people like Cale in this world, especially in nascar. Rest in peace. 🫡🙏✝️

The fight in 1979 probably being the most singular impactful moment for the growth of NASCAR … that and a blizzard… but if he hadn’t been a great driver … with the other great drivers being the Allison’s … it wouldn’t have been even a footnote
