Dave Smokey was my hero,I got to spend time with him at Atlanta and have a picture of him and I in my office and a hat he autographed for me. I also have all his books and many articles from old race magazines. [IMG]http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq21/ajcasini/max_zpsdppwd9km.jpg[/IMG]

Dave At one time it was said that half the rules in the NASCAR rulebook were because of Smokey. The other half were Junior Johnson. "Everybody funny, now you funny too."
