John Force said this about Richard Petty, and how to treat fans

" Richard Petty was really something else. He taught em to stand at the ropes and fences and never leave the fans. I'd watch him stand there and never leave a guy in a wheelchair. And I thought, my god, never walk away from a wheelchair even if you miss the next session. If you have to, shove him up there with ya! "

build a Richard Petty Dart? What kit car did Petty associate with?



I only found this above image initially, but Jay pointed out that Ebay, the source of all obscure stuff, has the following!

and a different box... notice they no longer have the "join the Petty Fan Club"




 Just search ebay for all the above

I forgot to post this contest give away Superbird... Jay shared it with me a couple of years ago, and I forgot to put it up here


and Jay even found out who won the car!


Thanks Jay! He has a Super Bird, and as unreal as this sounds, two of the Richard Petty Special riding lawn mowers. Un-frickin-believable. You probably read that post about it... but it's worth a 2nd look. You'll probably never hear of anyone getting Richard Petty to sign a lawn mower ever again, because who else has one?!
