Driving the No. 92, he led all 200 laps on the 0.5-mile dirt track and took home $1,000.
Dale I’ve been to this track many times. I have always been told the late Clay Earl owned it. The track here in Raleigh (Wake Co speedway) ran on Friday night & on Saturday night the short drive to Wilson. Back in the 60’s & early 70’s when we had service stations that also were garages there was often old late models parked. Often beat up from the bull ring. One garrage in particular just outside of town & only a few miles from the track had several including an old Chevelle. They just sat there. Simpson’s garrage which is located on the property of WCS often had late models around & still have a few as I believe one of the grandsons is still racing. They where Ford fans. Lots of Fairlane & Mustangs sitting over there back in the day. There was a junk yard down a path in the woods behind the track. I’ve been given permission a few times to have look. Several old stockers laid to rest in there. There was even a decent looking old 63/4 Dart drag car with a 413 from a C body sitting in there. I haven’t been there in 15 years or so. They race those plastic body wedge looking things there now. Never could get into to those.
