The race you are about to see appear as originally broadcast and may contain imagery that is offensive and doesn't align with NASCAR's values. NASCAR has since permanently banned the display of the confederate flag at all events.

I'm halfway through this and....no one has wrecked anyone else, and lapped traffic is getting out of the way. No cookie cutter cars. The announcing is so refreshing...without the nasal twang of Jeff Burton. This is NASCAR racing at its grass roots.

No (cookie cutter) template cars here. These cars sound much better also/big block iron. I was overseas at this time in Uncle Sam's Canoe Club. Thanks so much for posting.

See, you say that but you absolutely would be whining like a baby if today's racing were a field full of nobody's who before even reaching double digit lap numbers were already being passed by leaders. And Logano, Hamlin, Busch, & Larson unless none of them finished. You'd complain so much without it ever occurring to you it's exactly what you're nostalgic for here.

What you don't see on those cars are all the spoilers. These cars had minimum down force on the front and rear. They could follow each other nose to tail and the car would not pickup and Aero push, nor would they get loose if somebody got on their bumper. That is the biggest problem with todays cars. They are too reliant on downforce.

Thanks for the excellent audio/video quality on this upload. It's a gem to get a clean window into the past like this and see those stunning cars. Regulations must've been practically non-existent. Allison, Isaac, and Petty were passing the field like they were standing still on the bottom lane. 3rd place Vandiver finished 13 laps down! Also, crazy to see the pit crew naked out there with no firesuits or helmets, with gas splashing everywhere. Would've been nice for the broadcast to keep the viewer better informed on lap times and intervals, but I get it that it was 1972. Love these classic uploads and please keep them coming!

If I remember correctly, Bobby Issac was running a HEAVILY restricted Hemi. Petty and most, if not all, of the other Chrysler drivers had switched to wedge heads due to the crazy restrictions Nascar was putting on the Ford and Chrysler hemi style heads post 1970. After reading through the ridiculous lengths Nascar and the NHRA went through to make regulate Chevorlet into competitiveness, I have zero respect for the brand! Add in Junior Johnson admitted those Chevorlets were less than legal and received special helpand it's no wonder Chevorlet finially was getting slightly competitive here and there.

@852urkl 5 ай бұрын

@@user-fe6gc5rw2fThey didn't restrict Chevorlet, they plain out looked the other way and let them cheat so more fans would come to the races because Bill France was tired of Ford and Chrysler dominating the 60's and early 70's. Chevorlet didn't hardly win anything post 62 until NASCAR began the restrictor plate era and regulated the crap out of the intake systems of the Fords and Chrysler. Add in the 427 wasn't that great of a motor, that didn't help them either. Quite simply put, Chevorlet just couldn't run with Chrysler and Ford when the competition was unrestricted during the 60's. Chevorlet only wins when the sanctioning bodies bend the rules to benefit them. That is true beyond NHRA and NASCAR. Chevy is a wannabe....
