Me too. I like watching the highlights from back before I was born when the guys were fighting with each other in the infield.

Cale v Bobbie and Donnie at the end of the 79 Daytona 500? One of my all time favorite races. And Petty won it to top it off.

I was a month shy of being born for that race.

Three guys fighting in the infield after the race. one of them punching the other with their helmet? I liked Cale better than the Alabama gang, but he wound up on the losing end of that fight. Busted nose. That fight raised NASCAR to a new popularity level supposedly.
