Honoring the legendary person behind America's most prestigious race car trophy is a winning idea. Nascar's Super Bowl trophy deserves to rest on the mantle of popularity alongside the NFL's Lombardi and Stanley Cup trophies. The roots and traditions of stock car racing run deep in this country. For example, read this brief magazine excerpt on a young Earl in a Southern California stock car race: "Harley Earl, son of the owner of the Earl Carriage Works, won the 100-mile race for stock cars here yesterday with a special new Mercer."
