Note: some missing status, car make correction, driver hometown,
cautions and margin of victory ae now available.

Precision for "Margin of victory" = 1 lap+ under caution

Note for the 3rd caution: Two yellow in one ! Yellow from Laps 90-92
(oil from Chuck Bown #03), restart lap 93 but immediately new yellow
flag lap 93 due to #02 accident turn 1. Note: #02 blew a tire, caught
the fence, rolling twice. Red flag Lap 100 came out to clear the track.
The restart lap 93 did not count = same yellow for NASCAR officials.

It's a great day for the McGriff family as Hershel McGriff takes the win
and his son Doug McGriff comes home with a career-best third place
finish. This would turn out to be Hershel's last Winston West win for
almost a decade while it would be Doug's penultimate West series start,
he only returned after this for a one-off in 1978.
