On the final lap Yarborough slingshots past Baker to capture the win and Bill Elliott edges out a 3-wide battle for second.

One of my favorite 500's. Cale takes the CBS camera to the winner's circle. I think this was the first race where the commentators could talk to a driver in a car. They asked Cale how things were going during one of the caution periods, and he said "things feel pretty good, so I'm going to take it to the front and see how it feels there". And that's what he did on the next green. That was a man who knew his business!

Not to be that guy to kill the fun but he's imitating the sound of the engine to combat g-forces. Back in these days, jet pilots would do similar exercises to combat the effects of high G's, anything you can do to maintain your blood flow and breathing, likely where he learned it from. That's why he only does it in the turns because that's where you're fighting g-forces, not so much on the straights. Still funny to think about. Cale Yarborough, one of the most legendary drivers in Nascar history, driving around turns going "ARRRRRRRR" like a kid playing with toy cars.

This was TRUE racing at it's finest.The NASCAR of today should revisit all of these historic race videos.Then adjust today's "racing",if that's what you want to call it back to what made racing great.The segment format kills what they call racing.Quite trying to please everyone.If you notice today's races are never sold out,the seats are empty compared to back in the day.Jmo

I don't like this guy talking (the guy that keeps interrupting) he never gave credit to NHRA at the Barrett Jackson hot rod auction's, close minded. And NASCAR was doing 200 in 1970 back when it was cool
