Here’s what our listeners need to know about this week’s installment of our interview with Ricky Rudd.

We talk about his Busch CRASH and that astounding win two weeks later at Richmond, as well as his on-again, off-again relationship with Dale Earnhardt that was DEFINITELY off again in the late 80s at North Wilkesboro.

Ricky also discusses one of the most controversial finishes in NASCAR history, when his apparent 1991 Sears Point win was awarded to Davey Allison, as well as his years with Hendrick Motorsports.

 We then page through the October 20, 1988 issue of Grand National Scene.

 Rusty Wallace comes back from a scrape with Jimmy Means to beat Geoff Bodine to the stripe after a CRAZY last few laps at North Wilkesboro. Geoff bumps Rusty, Rusty bumps Geoff, Ricky Rudd bumps Dale Earnhardt, Dale SPINS Ricky, Ricky PUNTS Dale.

 There are features on the debate over a traveling safety team in NASCAR, Lynda Petty and Barbara Nelson, who’d recently found the son she’d given up for adoption.

Rusty Wallace’s recent win at Charlotte is celebrated in quite extravagant style, Harold Kinder gets handcuffed to the fence at Charlotte AND Jack Ingram has a wee bit of a problem with his trailer going TO Charlotte. Finally … we get a chance to not discuss politics on The Scene Vault Podcast!
