Exceptional video about Junior and writer Tom Wolfe, two unlikely characters who forever changed each other's vision.
I for one am proud of unpretentious people like Junior. In a sport that evermore seems to be squeezing out those of a blue collar, people like Junior rose up from that very place to one of dreams.
Perhaps the irony is as ticket prices rise, the fans that built circle-track racing are forced back to the inexpensive bullrings that started it all. Maybe going home is just what they need.
Merry Christmas to All.
