After running Phil Finney's #80 in the Daytona season opener Bob Schacht
switches over to his traditional #75 Pontiac for Nashville and scores
the first of his three wins this season. It was Schacht's third straight
win at the Nashville Fairgrounds but this ended up being ARCA's last
race on this track until 1992.

In an era well before "young guns" became a hot commodity in stock car
racing 17-year-old Darryl Sage turned in a great run here. Sage, a
Nashville local, put his #86 Pontiac on the outside pole then took the
lead from pole sitter Jerry Churchill to lead a few laps early in the is
race before falling back and ultimately finishing 12th, six laps down.
This was only Sage's second ARCA start and it would be his last for 20
years until he returned at the Nashville Superspeedway in 2003. This
would be the only ARCA race he ever led.

Don Marmor became a regular site in ARCA during the 1980s but his debut
was over before it began with a DNS. He'd make his first proper start at
Springfield later in the season in a combination ARCA/USAC race.
