Larry Richardson DNQed in the #85 for this race. He did make it into the
field at Pocono 2 races later however, for his lone Cup start.

That's pretty impressive for a hockey player.

This race was marred by a scoring breakdown. Bobby Allison contended
that Cale Yarborough was a lap down; NASCAR later said a scoring mistake
had indeed been made but the win stood.

And Bobby let that go? He was the type that would argue with the Lord or
the devil and wouldn't stop until he won. Donnie was the exact opposite.
His last win was the November 1978 race at Atlanta. They then said that
Richard Petty won, but later rescinded it, giving it back to Donnie. He
wasn't the type to fight you on anything. Then came Daytona, February
1979....

From reading a story on this race it sounds like Bobby protested after
the race was over, contending that Cale was a lap or maybe 2 down at the
end. After a couple days NASCAR said he was probably correct, but the
rule book said protests of that sort needed to be filed during the race.
I'm not sure how Bobby handled it, but it does seem like a black and
white call.

"(Donnie Allison) wasn't the type to fight you on anything. Then came

Actually proving your point further that was Bobby Allison, not Donnie,
who was throwing punches with Cale.
