@jeff_gluck @NASCARInsights From Sept. 6, 1971, to Oct. 8, 1972, Bobby Allison led at least one lap in 39 consecutive NASCAR Cup races. In the 1972 season, Bobby led every Cup race except the final race of the season at Texas World Speedway.

Per @NASCARInsights, Heim is the first driver to lead every race in a season for any series in a NASCAR national series.
Jeff Gluck@jeff_gluck
Get this: Corey Heim has now completed an incredible feat and led at least one lap in every race. He also just broke Mike Skinner's single-season laps led record (set in 1996).

@NASCARClassics @DAYTONA @NASCAR It was my pleasure to interview Sterling post race for ESPN’s Checkered Flag show.

Oh, so close.
Sterling Marlin finished second at @DAYTONA in July 1992.
It was the seventh runner-up finish of his career, as he still chased that elusive first victory.

@nascarman_rr @DaleJr Working on SpeedWeek during those days was unbelievably great. Every week, a superstar walked on that set, and so many folks who worked on that show made a lasting impression on motorsports.

@racermacRTP1 @ckyriazis2006 @ChasKrall ABC was in Atlanta for the cup race, but there was no Saturday coverage planned. A few cameras covered the Busch race for highlights for use on ESPN SpeedWeek. There was an interview shot with Jeff that was also used on SpeedWeek.

@fastmaster @ckyriazis2006 @ChasKrall Just to clarify... Gordon's first Busch win at Atlanta doesn't exist in broadcast form right?
And neither does Texas Busch 2000 after the resumption...

Maybe somewhere there is a tape floating around with the 1999 race at Nashville Fairgrounds...
(Would be a miracle...the TV crew departed after a long rain delay but a guy can hope!)
Serious kudos to everyone for finding that Nazareth race! WOW!!!

We heard the noise. We did some digging. Four previously “lost” @NASCAR_Trucks races have been uploaded to the NASCAR Classics Library. 1996 Nazareth Speedway 1997 @MartinsvilleSwy 1998 @phoenixraceway 1999 @MartinsvilleSwy 🔗: NASCAR.com/Classics

@ckyriazis2006 @ChasKrall We searched our archives and only found field or ENG tapes of the Nashville Truck race. Sorry to mislead. It shows up in our listings and did show as broadcast, but upon further review was not found.

@nascarman_rr @TommyKendall11 Marshall Teague was such an important figure in NASCARs
early history. I interviewed Frank Mundy in 1997 and he told me the story about the rental car. He was another great character.

The first win for "Bettenhausen Motorsports" came at Surfers Paradise 2002. This was no ordinary race. What started in a complete disaster ended with a red flag due to rain and Mario Dominguez in victory lane.
