New Marty Robbins

 In the 1972 Talladega 500, his laps were 15mph faster than his qualifying time.

 After the race, he turned downwards the Rookie of the Race accolade as well as admitted that he removed the carb restrictor “to run into what it was similar to sew together front end for once.”

They were running restrictor plates inward '72 at Daytona as well as Talladega.

The restriction was gone inward 1975 when all the engines had to hold upward the same size, simply came dorsum inward 1988.

Thanks Steve!
