I am going to try to start a new thing on here throughout the winter months for all of us to get our racing fix. It's going to be a video of the day from YouTube involving non-wing sprints, midgets, & Silver Crown.
Here is where I will begin, the USAC Sprint Car Series season opener from April 26, 1981 that aired on ABC Wide World of Sports. The announcing team includes legendary college football announcer Keith Jackson and National Speed Sport News's Chris Economaki. Enjoy!
