Great post.  :2thumbs:

Got to add: Richard Petty and his Plymouth won 18 of 40 races he entered in 1970. Awesome.

 sort of hijacking my own thread  :slap: but

thought this was a good video  :Twocents:
,  although might not be for some , its over a hour long  ,  & the wing cars only come in to it at 47m.7s , & then only briefly ,
 but well worth watching IMO lots of good info & storys  from drivers / teams etc from the early 60s on wards
