About this episode
This week in the final part of our interview, Dan Elliott talks about winning the 1988 Winston Cup championship despite tensions in the shop, the impact Mike Rich’s tragic passing had on his over-the-wall career and what amounted to the Taylor family packing up and moving out of Mayberry. We then tackle the February 28, 1991 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Dale Earnhardt and Ricky Rudd race for the win on the last lap at Richmond and they do NOT take each other out. That’s news in and of itself. Mark Martin comes back from multiple laps twice to finish sixth, but in the fog that was early 1991 for Roush Racing, Jack Roush is not happy with Mark’s effort. King Racing fabricator Jim Callard throws a little bit of shade at racing mechanics. Dan Elliott announces that he’s no longer going to going over the wall on pit stops, due in no small part to a tragic accident at Atlanta just a few months earlier. It LITERALLY pay Morgan Shepherd to be nice. And … last … but FAR from least … you could say that this issue had some REACTION to the pit road rules that were in effect for the Daytona 500.
