I think a lot of people forget that USAC had their own stock car series. In fact, when Ontario was open they had a double header with the first half being a 250 mile stock car race followed by a 250 mile Indycar race.
A.J. Foyt... I loved watching him race during the 1970s on ABC's Wide World Of Sports.... incredible how high these big blocks were turning back then..........
It's always nice to see the "Flying Scot" Jackie Stewart in any form of racing. He is one of the greatest racing drivers of all time, and the same can be said for his fellow Scotsman, the late Jim Clark.
Don White, Roger McCluskey, and Norm Nelson where outstanding in the Usac stock car series. I was fortunate enough to attend their races at Mid America raceway in Wentzville Missouri. As a kid it gave me a lifelong love of motorsports.
Thank you VERY MUCH whoever posted this !!!! I'll bet that you taped all of those episodes of Bud Lindermans "Road and Track". I would LOVE to see the USAC Stock race at Kaukauna that was shown on the channel that you originally taped this on. My copy burned in a fire...
You gotta love the primitive nature of the race course and the rules: No pit wall, no pit lane speed limit, pit crew with shirt-sleeve dungarees. Top-tiered racing has gotten too refined for my tastes nowadays.
That was great❤️❤️man what beautiful race cars☝️☝️

Can only dream of racing this pure
Parnelli has always been my favorite. Really wish I got his autograph to go with my Boss 302.
Grew up hearing my mom ask dad repeatedly "Who do you think you are, Parnelli Jones?" Sure do miss them.

Everything in the past is better than anything today. These were real cars and real men.
NASCAR executives should watch these old races and learn. This is how you get fans in the stands.
