Do you know that the first 10 hp Rolls-Royce was sold for £395...Today it is worth over £250,000.

The Rolls-Royce radiator grille is made entirely by hand and eye - no measuring instruments are used, I was surprised when I read it.

During the final lap of the 1976 Daytona 500, Richard Petty and David Pearson were battling side by side when they made contact with each other. They both spun, hit the wall, and slid into the tri-oval grass. All the other cars were very far behind them. Pearson's car slowly crawled for the finish line while Petty could not refire his engine. Petty's crew came out to push the car causing one of Nascar's most bizzare finishes. Pearson beat Petty to the line and won the Daytona 500.

here is another interesting story:
During the 2000 Winston 500, Dale Earnhardt made one of his most amazing victories. Trailing the field in 17th position with 5 laps to go Earnhardt began to move. He drafted up through the field to pass Mike Skinner with one lap to go. He was able to hold off Kenny Wallace to win the NO BULL 5 million at Talladega. (
