Combination event with the USAC Stock Car Series. Ultimate Racing
History has a pretty complete set of USAC Stock Car Results, I wonder if
there's any interest in adding them here?

The Third Turn and ultimate have complete USAC Stock Car results from
1971-1984 they have the top 12 for 1969-1970 and all the events and
winners from 1956. The Third Turn also has AAA from 1950-55 but not
complete results.

Also many more seasons (but not all of them) are available on The Third
Turn for ASA.

Just some thoughts if everyone is stuck home. Stay safe everyone

@4 You may have given me a project to work on. Just depends on my job at
the college and what little I can do for Kickin' the Tires with
everything basically being on hiatus.

There are also some complete seasons of Dash, out there, and several of
the seasons of Grand Touring/Grand American are complete on The Third
Turn, and then there's All American Challenge and All Pro.

@7 I knew the Dash Series and All Pro stats were out there. I didn't
realize GT and GA were complete. Depending on how much free time I have,
I'll see what I might be able to do.

Every season of GT/GA isn't complete but I think 69-70 and 72 are

I can't find any stats for him that go further back than 1979, so if
this is accurate this race is Dean Roper's only ARCA win on pavement.

Not sure how many cautions there were, but 41 of the 171 laps were under
caution. Also not sure how many lead changes there were, beyond
"numerous" but for reference winner Dean Roper led 5 times for his 35
laps. If everyone else kept up that pace, I would say they were most
definitely on pace for "numerous" lead changes.

DNQs:
Joe Wallace (owner: Joe Naegler)

Bobby Allison failed to qualify when his Pontiac had mechanical trouble,
but was added to the starting grid when ARCA & USAC invoked the good
ole' promoter's option clause. Allison didn't disappoint and put on a
show, charging from the back to the front over and over again - the
setup for the car caused Allison to experience excessive tire wear and
he hit the pits for four fresh tires every caution period. Allison and
Marvin Smith - running 1st and 2nd at the time - hit pit road when the
caution for rain came out, allowing Roper to inherit the lead. Allison
never had a chance to get back to the front as the rain persisted,
intensified, and washed away the final 29 laps.

Allison was apparently the highest-finishing ARCA entrant, though Brevak
and Venturini became longtime ARCA participants - and series champions!
- when USAC dropped stock car sanctioning a couple years later.
