What does that have to do with the video? I am not sure what to say because I was not around in 1979.

So cool!!!
We had 10 inches of snow and the temperature was 7* F that morning in central North Carolina. Normally, we would have listened to the race on the radio, but hey, flag to flag coverage on CBS? With me being a 9-year-old Petty fan, this was a day to remember!
That’s what you call a Gordie Howe hat trick. A goal a assist and a fight.
What an iconic race! They had the iconic announcer (Ken Squier) and of course the icon of NASCAR (King Richard) describing how it all went down. Amazing!
I could listen to The King tell those stories for days and never get bored! Good video editing too – short but to the point and interresting!
