I miss ole Barry
December 1, 1989: At the NASCAR awards banquet, champion crew-chief Barry Dodson accepted his trophy wearing a tuxedo that Tim Richmond had made in 1986 to be worn if he ever won the Cup championship. Barry's tribute was 3 months after Tim's passing https://t.co/52pdB2QqBA

Got Victory Lane pictures from both those wins in my files🏁
Rusty Wallace won the 1987 Winston Western 500 at Riverside 38 years ago today. 🏁 Rusty won the final two Winston Cup races at Riverside.

Helped us to go on a win the 89 Championship! @RustyWallace
October 15, 1989: North Wilkesboro. The last short track race of the eighties. Dale Earnhardt vs Ricky Rudd. A crash with championship implications. A split crowd ready to riot.

Team III Racing shut down just after these promo pictures were taken because our owner was a wee bit dishonest with the money he spent on the race team. He went to prison and we all went to Whitcomb Racing with Derick Cope. @Kenny_Wallace actually used to repair vacuum cleaners.

The Scene Vault Podcast … where the sport’s past meets its present.
And absolutely facisnating reaction from David Ifft and some other guys from the old school about the possibility of suing the France family back in the day. @TheSceneVault coming out with the best stuff as usual.

Yep, that’s me climbing in the window with Tim Richmond. I think it’s Pocono after a practice and Tim getting tire temperatures. What a hot rod racecar we had. Me and my brother Barry did all the body on those cars. I once went 4 laps with Tim at Daytona sitting in the floorboard
Yall keep a eye on that guy in the red T-shirt. He's probably doing some cheating shit. @JDNASCARTech

I attended a breakfast with @Sonderling47 last week where we discussed the value of trade skills education and immense demand for these future craftsmen. Keith and his administration want to make America Skilled Again Again and we @UTITweet are doing all we can to fill the jobs.
Last week, I had the chance to visit @RCRracing’s North Carolina campus, where the team at RCR is investing in the workforce of the future. @USDOL will continue to promote investment in skilled trades like I saw at RCR as we work to Make America Skilled Again 🇺🇸

Haha, that’s some pretty slow English wheeling, I had to slow down for the camera! I did several “Track Facts” with @DocPunchESPN , one of the all time greatest guys and amazing commentator. Good times!
The things you find when you're looking for something else ... how about @JDNASCARTech on this segment with @DocPunchESPN?

A lot of strategy went into our last lap pit stop. Barry told Rusty to save fuel and I noticed he was beating Labonte by a half second a lap. I told Barry if Rusty ran hard we’d have a 15 second lead when we had to stop. We had a 28 second lead which gave us enough time to pit 🏁
One of my favorites. @RustyWallace destroyed them so badly that he pitted on the last lap and still covered the whole field by 12 seconds.

I pulled up on this cat at a stop sign. Check out his Kodiak Racing bumper sticker. That’s 1989 baby, NASCAR Winston cup championship, Blue Max racing.@RustyWallace @LegendsNascar @TheSceneVault

I’m pretty sure my dad got disqualified because his car was 2 inches longer that it was supposed to be. 😂😂
June 23, 1957: Glen Wood qualifies 2nd and finishes 4th in a NASCAR convertible division race at New Concord Speedway. Johnny Dodson was originally scored P4 in Lee Petty's 42 Olds but was DQ post-race. #woodbrothers75

A few years ago the NC Governor Pat McCrory invited a bunch of the NASCAR legends to the Governor’s Mansion for lunch and a house tour. For some reason I got to go. As we were leaving, I snapped this picture of Bobby & Judy Allison walking away holding hands. True love. ❤️🏁
