Ulrich and Tommy Gale actually switch rides or is this an error? 2.

I was the General Manager of the Holiday Inn-Martinsville (Collinsville), catered the Pontiac & VNB VIP suites at the track and did the pre & post race functions for the sponsors and drivers. I was able to drive one of the red Pontiac Firebirds around town for the pre-race promotions. There were some great drivers back then. My favorite was Harry Gant who came in second in this race. 4.

While at first glance it looked like the team was running a St. Patrick's Day scheme a month late in reality the team was running the scheme to promote a special sale where 7-Eleven stores were selling shamrocks as a fundraiser for the MDA and Jerry's Kids. 5. myself posted: 02.26.2021 - 10:14 am Rate this comment: (0) (0) Need a picture of that Kyle Petty car. 6.
