Rick told me, "Ralph offered to pay me but I could not take his money! The best car I have ever driven!" 4.

Dick May qualified 30th, he either stepped aside for Buddy Arrington or withdrew to allow Arrington to start in his own car. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Post a comment:* Your comment may not appear immediately - all comments must be approved by the moderator.
