I have never been to Knoxville and wish I had seen the Nationals in the late 60's or 70's. The atmosphere must have been really laid back with teams pitting in the barns, poker games going on, drivers partying, etc. Much different now from what I hear. Would also liked to have seen a race at New Bremen when it was dirt. I stopped to look at the track in 2004 and it was strange as the stands, booths, etc. were all still standing. The track was right there with nice grass over it. Seemed like the track was just waiting to get worked and then we could go racing. Heard stands and such were torn down very recently.
