How It Happened at TIS
(Continued from page 1)
looking good after 38 1 laps, we
must set up just about right.
One hundred mile mark and
really looking good. Got a 15-sec
ond lead and the car is working
fine, we can pass anybody any
place. Buddy is drafting again,
looks like we are the only ones
able to draft today. . . .
Get ready, here he comes in
again. All four tires, gas and a
clean windshield and out. This
one took a while because of
changing the extra two tires.
First you change the right side
then let the car down, jack up
the left side and change those
tires. All that time only five
people can be across that pit
wall because of NASCAR rules.
David Pearson took the lead from
us that time, but no sweat. . .
Just seven laps since Buddy
pitted and here comes Pearson
to pit, we’ll get the lead back
now. Doesn’t look like Pearson
is going to be back in this race,
they’re pushing his car behind
the pit wall.
Three hundred fifty miles gone
and sure is looking good. Car is

running fine and our tires seem
to be holding up better then
some other cars. . .
Now things are beginning to
tighten up in the pits. We can
smell victory, and what a sweet
one this is going to be. Cotton
just told Buddy to slow down
again, he doesn’t want anything
to happen to the car at this
stage of the race.
LeeRoy Yarbrough just lost an
engine, while running in second
place, and it’s really looking like
our day. Almost a lap lead and
only 26 laps to go. Caution is
up because LeeRoy spilled some
oil on the track. Cotton just call
ed Buddy in for an insurance pit
stop during the caution. A little
gas and he’s on his way.
One more lap under the cau
tion and they’ll be running
again. Cotton is telling him to
take it easy. Wonder why James
Hylton is moving over in front
of Buddy?
Look out!
Buddy couldn’t hear me. He’s
smoking. How bad is it? He’ll
have to come around before we
can tell.

Here he comes. Get the sledge
hammer see if we can beat that
sheetmetal back in place. It’s no
use. The front end is gone. The
radiator and water pump and
fan look like they may be gone
too
“Forget it,” was all Cotton
said after seeing the extent of
the damage.
Buddy looked like he’d been
shot when Cotton said that. He
sat there momentarily in stunned
silence as the realization of what
he had just been told dawned on
him. Finally he put the car into
gear and drove to the garage
area.
He stopped the car and just
sat there for a while as if not
wanting to part with it. Finally,
after some minutes, he began
unbuckling his shoulder harness
and lap belt and slowly unwound
his 6’5” frame through the door
glass of the now crumpled race
car. His dirt streaked face was
drawn as reporters started gath
ering around him and his wound
ed Charger.
But it was obvious from the
expression on his face that no
one was going to question Buddy
Baker for some time.
He was crying.
