Corvette Killer!

Buddy Pittman also had fun with another big event that happened at NSS a long time ago with a spectator race. The competition was to beat the newer corvette and the guy even put up the money for it. The night he was finally beaten was the night he hit the front straightaway wall. In the feature race another corvette got involved in an accident with a Volare and was totaled. Buddy Pittman had the story on Sunday Sports Extra and even came buy the shop to meet the driver of the Volare..." Corvette Killer". I know this is a true story because the "Corvette Killer" is my husband. Oh and my husband was the winner of the beat the corvette contest.
