I grew up watching him race at Brainerd.

For myself, mostly Atlanta but also Bristol, Darlington, Rockingham and some match races at small tracks. Rarely watch drag racing today, although the PDRA style racing reminds me a bit of the 70's and the Nostalgia Racing like the March Meet at Famoso has been added to my bucket list. Once drag racing went Corp. it was just never the same and cost along with car counts will in time do the sport in IMO.
