It's pretty low quality too, even by the standards of 25 years ago. Mostly shots from what looks like the esses (unfamiliar with this track layout, sorry), some fans camping, the entrance to pit road and then victory lane. Part of it was clipped for the 1992 ARCA season highlight recap video, which also may not be available online anywhere. If possible, I'd love to be able to post it on Youtube, and post the link here, but I'm not sure I can do that. There's a bunch of ARCA footage from 20+ years ago, mostly from Atlanta, Daytona & Talladega, from races not presently on Youtube, that I'd love to be able to post, just so the world can see it...I know that there are very few surviving copies of many of these older races after the fire at the ARCA office a couple years back, it would be great to finally see video of some legendary ARCA races and moments that we only know about in writing now... 14.

You've done a wonderful job filling in the gaps on a lot of these period ARCA events and it is very appreciated. 15.

Between finding old ARCA videos and news articles and going to most of the current races, I'm glad I can make at least some impact on ARCA stat & recordkeeping. Lord knows we need a lot of help in that department, I'm trying to do as much as I can in my current position. 17. rm posted: 06.13.2018 - 8:24 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Oh, and Schrader led the missing 4 laps. I believe he led the opening 3, ceded to Waltrip, spun out, got a caution a couple laps later, passed Waltrip and new leader Venturini not long after the restart, only to be passed back by Waltrip a lap later. 18.

I don't think you'd get in trouble as long as you aren't profiting from them. as far as I am concerned. 20.

DW lapped the field en route to the first of his two ARCA triumphs and his only one on a road course. This wasn't Waltrip's only win at Heartland Park though, he'd return here and win an ASA race in the Kansas countryside in 1994. 22.
