The Legend of Smokey Yunick

[Ron77]

I have always liked him and wish they had more like him today.

I had never heard how he got the nickname Smokey.

Now I'm a little bit smarter until my breakfast beer kills off a few more brain cells.

I think I said here before that I was fortunate enough to meet Smokey and spend a couple of hours with him one night in Daytona at his garage. He truly was just like what you see in the video and what people say about him.

Smoky on the early Corvettes.

The man spoke what was on his mind.

Wonder what he would say about the current CRAPCAR circus.

[Ron77]

I don't know but I would bet he would have plenty to say. Not like the pussy footing people that are in it today and to worried about being PC to say anything.

I sure his comments would be epic. He never was high on France from the beginning, so his comments on today's CrapCar would be very interesting to say the least.
