Some old NASCAR trivia

[Trash Inturn4]

In honor of the late Dick Trickle let's give you a question to remember the White Knight #99.

1 - Although Dick Trickle has won over 1200 races in his long racing career, his first win in one of NASCAR's major series came in 1997, when he won a Busch Grand National race at what track?

He did win twice in the second-tier Busch Series, in 1997 at Hickory (N.C.) Motor Speedway, where he became the series' oldest victor, and in 1998 at Darlington (S.C.) Raceway, where he held off Dale Earnhardt Jr.

Buick Dominance

When I first saw this question I really didn't think it was true. But I did a little research and sure enough, Buick really did dominate that year.

1 - In 1982 Buick won 25 of the 30 Winston Cup races run, winning at least one event at every track that year except for one. Which track was it?

Here's a question that may stump you... Paul Goldsmith won the 1953 Daytona 200 riding a Harley-Davidson and the final stock race on the beach in 1958 driving a Pontiac. He is the only driver/rider so far to win both of Daytona's biggest events (for their respective classes) during his career... There was one person who was instrumental in securing both these victories for Goldsmith... Who was he?

Daytona Trivia
