Description

This week, we turn the mic over to Ken Ragan and he proceeds to regale us with one racing story right after another.

 

Family that goes A LONG way back in the sport.

 

A promise to his future wife.

 

Making an offer on an old Bobby Allison race car.

 

How his brother decided that they should go Winston Cup racing.

 

It's all here, and more.

 

Let's go ahead and put this out there ... Ken's Georgian accent is one of the best you've EVER encountered here on The Scene Vault Podcast.

 

 We then dive into the March 31, 1983 issue of Grand National Scene.

 

Although he had to wait a week, Cale Yarborough wound up in victory lane at Atlanta after grabbing the lead on the final restart and cruising the rest of the way to the checkered flag.

Ken Ragan makes the first start of his Winston Cup career, but finds himself in the middle of a late-race, multicar accident.  

 

There’s a reward out for the capture of a thief who struck in the garage area, while a couple of guys go full on redneck in the campground.

 

We also say goodbye to another member of the Winston Cup Scene and Illustrated family.
