I just heard on the Sirius/XM NASCAR channel that the track named the garages at Richmond for the recently deceased, Richmond native and NASCAR legend, Junie Donlavey. But even cooler than that, tonight Kenny Schrader will pace the field for a couple of laps in one of Donlavey's cars, a restored 1987 Thunderbird. That is going to really be special. I won't fast forward through that.
Kenny drove for Junie for three years and is a fine candidate to drive it; but I think it would have been just as fitting to get Jody Ridley, who gave Junie his only Cup win, to drive it.
