This week in the second installment of our interview with Danny Lawrence, he talks about Dale Earnhardt, the king of cool … AND freebies. He also recalls Richard Childress’ strict ban against the tricks of the trade that nearly every other team in the garage was using.

We then sneak a peek into the April 2, 1981 issue of Grand National Scene.

Surprise … surprise … Darrell Waltrip wins at Bristol while driving for Junior Johnson. Benny Parsons and Joe Millikan have a clash of fenders and tempers. Joel Halpern … David Pearson’s car owner at the time … loses his life in a powerboat accident.

There are also features on Richard Bostick and George The T-Shirt Man and a column on Pat Allison, the wife of newly elected NASCAR Hall of Famer Donnie Allison.
