Dump the B.S. restrictor plates, put them on rock hard tires and you'll see some real racing!

@altfactor In fact, play-by-play man Bill Flemming was one of the few ABC sportscasters NOT at Innsbruck for the 1976 Winter Olympics. Howard Cosell may have been the only other one remaining in the 'States.
This finish was better than anything in the restrictor plate era. 2007 was garbage compared to this.
Also note, after losing, Petty climbs out of the car smiling. The punk young gun crybabies of today would whine and fight. Petty had class. It say a lot because winning was much more important back then for guys like Petty...they had to win to be able to pay the bills.

David Pearson could drive the hell out of a 200mph car. If they could have a race between Jimmy Johnson and the David Pearson of the late '70's in a TRUE 200MPH CAR, Pearson would whip Johnson's ass up and down the track.
