top_shelf_12 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Think the only videos we have are of incidents that probably want to be forgotten, but not even sure where those are. Fights at CC were pretty legendary though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinedvl1982 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Yeah thats all that tape is just wreaks and crashes. Oh man the rivalries back then. You knew after the races there was gonna be a fight or payback the next weekend. I can remember a few fights from carluccis and the hienmans.

top_shelf_12 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 The Flying Carlucci is one of the tapes, they used to live on the next block from me. Heinamen/Nichols was bad, now they're good friends lol. Funny thing about that one was Nichols usually didn't get hit on track, John Sullivan was the victim usually. Seen that track test friendships too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickey_bigdaddy Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Drivers Dale Gingrich and Monty Nichols need to be added to the drivers list. Al and Slick Yeomans were father and son. Pat, Dale and Neal Flanagan should also be added Henry Perry as well Jarrett Rollins, Dubs son David Horton, mini stock champ I think more than once Jerry Edwards Sammy Holland Bruce Sanders Wayne Norrell Mike Denman Johnny Unitas Charlie Heflin David Lehnert John and Scott Sullivan Rick, Jim Baldwin Wayne Norrell Nook Salge Johnny Unitas??? He doesn't belong in the Hall of Fame. Come on, some of you guys are just stuck in the good ole days syndrome. Johnny Unitas, did he ever win a race? He's not in the same league as Terry Labonte. And how much did Rick Baldwin (RIP) win??? just alittle narrow minded . ole days sydrome .... ... fact to make it into any hall of fame it takes time to earn a spot . i dont ever recall hearing aboult anyone makeing it into the hall of fame for just showing up one day and saying here i am .. . another thing .this isnt just aboult how many races someone has won ...there are many poeple out there with many years behind the seen who contribute so much time alot of it thankless should get a chance .....look at jimmy the fireman ..he has been a life savior for more years than i can remember .. he has worked hard at and on that track ,,,,noone thought of him .unless i missed it in some other post ... some of the score keepers spent many years up in the booth ,,they should be included ....heck they have not ever been in a racecar .....if you decide on someone for how many races they won .thats your choice . i am alittle more open minded ....anyone who has contributed .to this sport in more ways than just being behind the wheel . should get the same respect.... No, I'm not narrow minded. I started goin' in early 60s and I've seen a lot of these guys but after '88, I pretty much moved on to bigger cities and bigger tracks. Post '88, I haven't seen many CC races pretty much because I'm not into all these varieties of racing that evolved. I was Super Stock (asphalt) or nothing kinda fan. My family was friends with Unitas and his family, the Horners. Great people and tried hard but didn't amount to much in success. Again, Hall of Fame, not by a longshot. A wall of previous racers with photos and Bio, by all means. If you're adding just anyone, add Nato Rojas. What a junker he put out there. I think he was a worker out at Sammy's junkyard or one of them, I can't remember. The original hispanic giving it his all. I hope that's his name, my dad would remember but then again he's gone and I can't ask him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
