The 1962 Southern 500, they flagged Junior Johnson as the winner. the ne that evening, that night, they realized they made a mistake and Larry Frank was deemed the winner. And so he came out the next day to get his trophy and and that was pretty much it. He he got the cash and he got a pat on the back, but he missed all the victory lane ceremonies.

I'm going to tell you right now, the the press box used to be the second floor of this one whenever I was here in the '90s. And you talk about a great seat to see those cars screaming, coming straight at you. It was uh it was unbelievable. Um the media loved it here. Now they're actually in the top.
