the No 1 spot in 8 races this season "It was as intriguing a qualifying session as any of us have been through in a long time" said Allison "Track conditions were constantly changing because it suddenly got so warm hot really and then clouds started shadowing the track from the sun You didn't know whether the asphalt was gonna be cool or warm when you went out "Then a bad spot developed between the third and fourth turns The asphalt started flaking All of us drivers got together during the delay and talked about it and determined we could go under it and that qualifying could continue" The delay Allison referred to was a power failure that rendered NASCAR's electronic timing eye useless for several minutes "If the spot worsens during the race Sunday it could be a serious problem" added Allison Rounding out the top 10 are Dale Earnhardt Harry Gant Benny Parsons Richard Petty and Joe Millikan Dick Brooks and DK Ulrich all in Chevrolets )wer 'ason 5000 win

major factor in his losing the Winston driving championship last season to Richard Petty by 11 points Allison is the defending champion in this event winning in 1979 on 3 wheels as his Bud Moore-built

beginning And with Clay Ear les of Martinsville (Va) Speedway and Barney Wallace of Darlington he's among few officials who can trace their NASCAR connections to the earliest days There have been trying times The worst: Enoch's younger brother Gwyn was killed in 1957 while competing in a race on NASCAR's old convertible circuit at Richmond A mountain of a man at 6-4 230 pounds Staley perhaps is better known to thousands of fans as a pace car driver than as a track president For a quarter of a century he's held that assignment at various tracks particularly fast layouts like Alabama International and Daytona In- m- ternational 4: Reason? "It '1 ittk 41(4 takes a cool 4 at'i character to car at the big tracks where the following t'i' machines can accelerate and Staley come up on the pacer so fast" explained a NASCAR official "Enoch is perfect for the Job absolutely unflappable" I Staley smiled with a mixture of embarrassment and appreciation at the assessment "W-e-I-1-1-1 1 don't know about all that" he said "But it isn't as easy as it looks There's much more to it than just ridin' round and round "The biggest mistake a pace car driver can make is to get too far ahead of the field on the lap before a restart It's an easy error to commit You hear all that horsepower revving behind you and you know that crowd like Buddy Baker and Cale Yarborough is rarin' to go "If you speed up and open a gap you give them room for a running start The pace cars 1 drive though specially equipped peak at about 130 mph The race cars will exceed 200 So you've got to hold back and keep them close behind you Otherwise you're running 130 with all that iron coming up from behind and you've got to make a quick exit onto pit road Then you've got a problem" Staley drove in only two races once in a promotional stunt at Raleigh which he won "And in the late 1950s 1 competed in a road race at Elkhart Lake Wis just for kicks" he said "1 finished fifth and figured that was a good enough record that 1 shouldn't risk messing it up" Despite his lack of racing experience Staley has bobbled only a couple times in the pace car The wildest on-track incident he remembers was in 1972 at Texns World Speedway "1 got onto the track a little be drive the pace t' gad 1 the following car at the big n' 444---1 i'' 411 tracks where 't-ifir 111:1 machines can accelerate and Staley come up on the pacer so fast" explained a NAS- CAR official "Enoch is

Charlotte's Checker Cab Other company winners were Aron Kirkland (Yellow Cab of Charlotte) Carl Burris (Concord's City Cab) and John McNair (Victory Cab of Charlotte) ik Staley also had wild situations at North Wilkesboro Speedway known for the colorful characters it attracts though crowds now are considerably more subdued than in the old days An incident that still flabbergasts him was last year at North Wilkesboro Persistent spring rains plagued qualifying forcing reduction of the track's unique two-day system for the top eight spots to a onetime trial run Then it rained again Saturday night and into Sunday morning Although the sun broke through about 10 am Staley and NASCAR had to postpone the race for a week The deluge brought earth worms and nightcrawlers by the millions out of the infield area soil seeking relief from the waterlogged earth by crawling onto the asphalt racing surface They clogged drain pipes and entwined Inches deep on the pavement There was no way to clean up the slimy mess in time to get a race in "It was tough calling that race off when we could see the sun coming out and fans were standing around waiting" said Staley "There was no choice but it gave me a sinking feeling very similar to that one I knew back at the Wilkes Hotel in 1947 "But I think I made the right decision" Both times FRONT DISC BRAKE SERVICE SAVE $13 EXPERIENCED MECHANIC
