The track would however become a staple on the Busch series from 1982 to 2000 and would host the Truck series from 2001 to 2003 before sadly being left off the schedule 3. fannie davis posted: 07.15.2009 - 10:04 pm Rate this comment: (3) (0) way to go Benny you are surely missed never got to see you race but you were a great sportscaster no 1 in my book thanks for the memories Benny !!!! 4. rob posted: 05.19.2011 - 11:05 pm Rate this comment: (1) (1) race was run on mother's day before a sparse crowd. 5. nascar_vd / racing-reference.info posted: 02.15.2016 - 8:40 am Rate this comment: (0) (0) Note: Driver Standings after this race (top35): 1) Richard Petty = 1466 2) James Hylton = 1296 3) Elmo Langley = 1260 4) Cecil Gordon = 1221 5) Benny Parsons = 1165 6) Bobby Allison = 1061 7) Bobby Isaac = 1000 8) Bill Champion = 995 9) Jabe Thomas = 983 10) Henley Gray = 878 11) Frank Warren = 861 12) Dave Marcis = 843 13) J.D.
