Here's a tidbit for y'all have a fun and SAFE weekend...
Happy Birthday King Richard!
The speedway is celebrating the 25th anniversary of Richard Petty's 200th and final Cup series victory. President Reagan gave the "Gentlemen, start your engines" command from Air Force One, then attended the race. Reagan, a former sportscaster, even called a few laps for the telecast.
Richard's son, Kyle, will be grand marshal for Saturday's Coke Zero 400. Also, today is Richard Petty's 72nd birthday.
The occasion also serves to clear up speculation about a rift between father and son. Earlier this year, it was reported that Richard and Kyle had not spoken for about 2 months. The impression was that Kyle, a longtime racer, was miffed over being excluded from any role in the family racing business after Petty Enterprises merged with Gillett Evernham Motorsports.
