NASCAR Busch Series at South Boston 1997: (pt.12/12)

HOLY COW!!! The exciting finish to the Winston Motorsports 300 at South Boston (Va.) Speedway!

Randy LaJoie (#74) leads the field to the restart with 5 laps to go, trying to hold off Dale Shaw (#4) and Buckshot Jones (#00).

Dennis Setzer (#43) and Mike Dillon (#72) spin in turn three, no caution as the leaders had already taken the white flag.

LaJoie and Shaw talk about their battle to the finish.

oo well randy lajoie said in his interview "i wish they would keep these track on the series forever" n as we al know.....they no longer go to any of the 3 bull rings south boston, nashville fairgrounds, or myrtle beach.

gotcha lol

SoBo kinda went downhill after this race as far as i am concerned

the groove never again was as high as it was

it became a one-groove track, on the bottom, especially after they rebuilt the pit road

@BlueCelicaTRD one of those #74 FINA cars recently sold at a Barrett-Jackson auction for about $30,000, restored to raceable condition and everything, even came with an old driving suit, helmet (signed by Randy LaJoie), and a few other things
