    Patriarch & Founder of the Woods Brothers Team passed away today @ 93.
    He & his 2 Brothers founded the Team, The oldest in NASCAR & is credited with the modern Pit Stop format.
    I can't remember the exact quote, but it went something like, If You can't out run them, You can makeup time on the Stops, & that proved correct.

    Sad I had the privilege of meeting them at Michigan speedway in the early 80s. The pit crew rode in a buss from race to race and when we figured out who was stuck in traffic behind us I got out of the car and walked back to knock on the door. Gracious and humble guys. Real class act.

    I first saw him race in the late 50s at the Old Raleigh Speedway.
