No Davey Allison, Cale Yarbrough, Buddy Baker or Fred Lorenzen pics? All four won the Daytona 500 driving a number 28.

I wonder if the top pic of Davey and the RYR crew is from a test session in late 1992? The first Brickyard was ran in 1994, the car in the pic looks to be a 1992 Thunderbird. Plus the white letter tires were replaced at Atlanta in the fall race of 1992. Just curious?

For the reasons you stated and more, I believe you are 100% correct. The 1992 test was June 22-23 1992. The next test was not until August 16-17 1993, by which time Davey was dead. Unless this was taken at a time when the Cup cars were not testing at the Speedway, it has to be June 1992.
