NASCAR: The beginning HOW DID NASCAR COME ABOUT? WHO WAS INVOLVED? Landon Huffman Prof. Presnell UWRT 1103

Background info  Moonshine relation- “Rum Runners” ran from the law during prohibition  Daytona Beach, FL  Bill France Sr.

Why am I interested?

Moonshine and the law  50% of early NASCAR racers involved in the moonshine business  “Rum Runners”  Mckim told me about Bob Flock, Lakewood Atlanta  Big names of sport were once bootleggers- Junior Johnson (Hall of Fame inductee)

Bill France Sr.  Founder of NASCAR (National Association of Stock Car Racing)  Moved to Daytona Beach, FL w/family in 1934  Promoted several races before and after the war  Noticed lack of organization within racing community: no rules, false purse, etc.

Meeting at the Streamline  December France calls 35 of most important people in stock car racing together to discuss creating a sanctioning organization  NASCAR was born

An American Pass time  Moonshine was the root  Even before Bill France, racing was popular: France just proposed the idea of an overseeing organization  A bunch of dirt poor guys running from the law, instigated what is now a money making, power house sport  Combination of moonshine/Bill France Sr helped launch NASCAR into the world
