This was the most competitive 600 in the event's history to that point - the lead changed 43 times between Cale, David, Waltrip, Benny Parsons, and the Allisons.

This is RAW video shot by CBS the day of the race, it would not be shownuntil 3 weeks later. The following year, CBS would record the entire MRN radiocast as the audio track to help in editing. For 1980 and 81, they went LIVE...if not flag-to-flag. CBS first picked up the World 600 in 1975...it was on film that year as far as I know.

Sweet!! I wish they'd slow the cars down nowadays to these speeds. The racing would be much better! Thanks for posting these old videos!

[Holden308]
