SAD NEWS Michael Jordan Die In A Car Cr…..
Bobby Allison, founder of racing’s “Alabama Gang” and a NASCAR Hall of Famer, died Saturday. He was 86.
NASCAR released a statement from Allison’s family that said he died at home in Mooresville, North Carolina.
A cause of death wasn’t given, but Allison had been in declining health for years.
Allison moved to fourth on NASCAR’s Cup Series victory list last month when chairman Jim France recognized him as the winner of the Meyers Brothers Memorial at Bowman Gray Stadium in North Carolina in 1971.
The sanctioning body updated its record books to reflect the decision, giving Allison 85 wins and moving him out of a tie with Darrell Waltrip.
NASCAR Truck Series driver Matt Mills was hospitalized after he appeared to be wrecked intentionally during Saturday’s race at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Mills’ truck hit the wall and caught fire after he was bumped by Conner Jones.
Mills was able to get out of the truck on his own, but his Niece Motorsports team said in a statement Saturday evening that he would be hospitalized overnight for observation.
In heavily bleeped audio Fox Sports 1 captured from his team radio, Jones was irate referenced something going on “all year” and that he was “tired of it.”
NASCAR ended up penalizing Jones two laps for reckless driving after the crash.
