Team Marketing 1987 Winston 500
The 1987 Winston 500 from Talladega was the sight of some incredible performances. Bill Elliott set the NASCAR speed record with a lap of 212.809 mph. The race also saw, for the first time, every car qualify above the 200 mph barrier. Perhaps the most impressive performance was that of a young rookie in the face of terror. Davey Allison began the 1987 season as a contender for the rookie of the year honors. At his home track his father, Bobby Allison, suffered a horrifying crash in Talladega's tri-oval when his car went airborne and slammed into the catch fence. Although he was concerned for his father, Davey took his #28 Texaco Ford to victory lane and went on to win later that year at Dover Downs, becoming the first driver to win two or more races in his rookie year.PLEASE NOTE:  This item is shipped directly from the manufacturer and is delivered via Standard shipping only.
