Nascar Trivia

Okay, since nobody is willing to take the helm here, I'll give another easy question. Who was the first Grand National (today's Nextel Cup) driver killed in a race and when?

I want to say it happened at Lakewood, but research says perhaps: Larry Mann in September 1954 at Langhorne, PA. ???????
 
Good enough, but my sources say that it happened September 14, 1952. Didn't say where it happened.

You're go.

Someone else try to "stump the panel". Will catch up in a few days!

Thanks,

Is your nickname "lightning". That was a fast response and it is now your go. :)
 
Ok, Bristol is next on the schedule so......... tell me who was the only driver to drive a buick to victory at this famed track. Bonus chocolate chip cookies if you can give the year.

Good ole DW in the early 1980's.

You're up Historic

OK, lets stay with Bristol. What was the first car manufacturer to win at Bristol and for a cookie, who was the driver. (Hint, he is in one of the Hall of Fames).

A Pontiac driven by Joe Weatherly back in 1961, ( I think)

Good stuff. It was a Pontiac but I believe the driver was Jack Smith. I could be wrong.

Your turn.....................
 
One of the great early ones - Bill Rexford. It had to be the early '50's?

Very Good, Historic...... it was 1950 and Bill Rexford was the man!! Your turn.

OK, who was Jeff Gordon's car owner immediately before Hendrick?
 
Like I wouldn't know? :D

OK, who is this driver and who did he beat out for ROTY in what year?
