Sorry, nothing like the fights of the ‘good ole days’.
(Actually, nothing like the sport of the ‘good ole days’ for that matter.)
These modern boys certainly need some lessons in the sweet science. I have seen school yard fisti cuffs in grade school better.
Off course, they don’t want to cut or hurt each other, it would damage their “purdy factor” for sponsors.
I’ve always been an avid motor sports fan. But I haven’t watched one race this year. Just lost interest. I long for “the good old days” myself. Back when manufacturers really fought it out, and the cars were different. Smokey Yunick was a hero back then!
“Another Yunick improvisation was getting around the regulations specifying a maximum size for the fuel tank, by using eleven foot (three meter) coils of 2-inch (5-centimeter) diameter tubing for the fuel line to add about 5 gallons (19 liters) to the car’s fuel capacity. Once, NASCAR officials came up with a list of nine items for Yunick to fix before the car would be allowed on the track. The suspicious NASCAR officials had removed the tank for inspection. Yunick started the car with no gas tank and said “Better make it ten,”[2] and drove it back to the pits. He used a basketball in the fuel tank which could be inflated when the car’s fuel capacity was checked and deflated for the race.”
