(No fair Dave...you can't answer...LOL....)

In 1962, NASCAR held a Grand National race at a Florida race track, and it included a local legend. In 1963, that race was replaced with what event?

The local legend was Buzzie Reutimann, the race was at Golden Gate, Im not clear on what it was replaced with.

Ok, here the first one for tonight.

[ABYSS64]

This one should be easy but I'll throw it up anway just because it's funny.

[Jimmy McKinley]

The first one (the #22) is Fireball; and the King.

I'll give y'all til tomorrow night to guess my question...LOL

You are correct on the King, looks pissed off don't he?
The 22 is not fireball, look a little closer Jimmy. Did I get any of your question right?

[ABYSS64]

Last one for tonight.

[Jimmy McKinley]

Oh, OK...lookin' at the 22 again, it's Big Bill France.

The black and gold #0 is Chargin' Charlie Glotzbach at Golden Gate in '77 - my dad took that pic ;-) We were about three pits to the right. That's my pic, by the way...LOL...

Oh - and Gary was *real close*. When NASCAR decided they didn't want to return to Tampa, Frank Dery <?>....(damn, I can't remember the name now :-( ) wanted a big stock car race to replace the Grand Nationals in November. So the following year, he decided to hold the very first Florida State Stock Car Championship for Late Model Automobiles. Dave McInnis would win the first Florida 200. The Florida Governor's Cup wouldn't arrive until the following year (1964), won by Freddy Fryar. So, in short, the Governor's Cup is not the name of the race; it's the name of the trophy awarded to the Florida State champion :-)

I think that is Glen Wood standing by the #22 Ford coupe.
