For the above, my source is the official NASCAR race report which has
not been published on the internet before.

Bobby Isaac wins his second race in a row as the Grand National East
series visits iconic Islip Speedway for the only time. This was the last
major NASCAR race at Islip.

This was Ronnie Childress' Grand National East debut. Looks like he
started and parked the family's normal #96 to bank a few extra bucks
while brother Richard Childress drove for another team in this one.
Richard banked a top-10 while Ronnie's race probably only lasted a few
seconds.
