I think this is one thing people don't remember about the ol' days. There wasn't the wheel to wheel racing like today. Watching the leading car running alone lap after lap is not that entertaining. Bill France would let anything run the race if it filled the field with cars and the grandstands with fans But those pit stops back in the day make up for it. Watching Darrell and his other brother Darrell and cousin Bubba change tires was real entertaining. And having Chris E. doing a driver interview was another treat.
