Former Cup series race winner Earl Ross returns after a one-year absence from the series for his last attempt to run in it. The lone Canadian to date to win a Cup race lasted only five laps in this qualifier leading to a DNQ that sadly ended his Cup career. In 1977 Janet Guthrie became the first woman to race in both the Daytona 500 and the Indy 500. She would not repeat that feat in the 1978 as her performance here left the #68 Chevrolet on the trailer early but she would score a top-10 later in the year at the Brickyard. 2. nascarman posted: 07.21.2015 - 1:20 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) This race was delayed by rain and run on Friday February 17, 1978.
