This week's show begins with a simple challenge ... pay it forward. Do something nice for someone else, without any expectation of receiving anything in return.

Will Lind got his start in the sport working with James Hylton, but he went on to have a LONG and successful career with Richard Childress Racing and was probably best known for changing rear tires on Dale Earnhardt\u2019s Flying Aces/Junkyard Dogs pit crews of the late 1980s and early 90s.

This week, Will talks about his hardcore early days in the sport, when he went to GREAT lengths to carve out a place for himself in the garage, his beginnings with RCR and the Dale Earnhardt he knew away from the track.

The September 2, 1982 issue of Grand National Scene marked a fairly significant milestone in the publication\u2019s history. It was Scene\u2019s first issue with a standard tabloid size, rather than the folded, two-cover format it had used since its very first issue back in the spring of 1977.

In the pages of that week's issue, it wasn\u2019t exactly breaking news that Darrell Waltrip won at Bristol. This was his fourth in a row there, but it wasn\u2019t exactly easy \u2026 and surprise of all surprises \u2026 there was just a wee little bit of controversy that night.

Bobby Allison and Harry Gant weren't exactly happy with NASCAR or Darrell Waltrip. Dave Marcis wasn't happy with Terry Labonte, and Terry Labonte AND Billy Hagan weren\u2019t happy with Dave.

After reading co-host Steve Waid's column, Jimmy Means probably wasn\u2019t very happy either after being made fun of for being so skinny. And finally \u2026 Bill Elliott \u2026 yes, THAT Bill Elliott got downright chatty with Gene Granger about the never-ending battle between Ford and General Motors, his season to date and safety.
