Gold has been hurting badly, and enduring terrible physical pain, to give fans something familiar amid so much disruption his voice.

Gold has had both of his shoulders replaced in the last few months, and the most recent procedure, because he just couldn't fight the pain any longer, happened on Nov.3, Election Day.

Hmm.
Wasn't a Davey fan, thought he was a whiner. (which he was) But more I found out about him post-death, I kind of liked him.

But:
Dale
Richard
Smokey
David Pearson
Junior

Would be a good time right there

Hate that. Any truth to the rumors about him him at Richmond that led to him being dismissed from NASCAR?

I've got to come clean, I think a meal with D Waltrip might get agitating.

I remember when Darrell Waltrip started his own race team. His former employer, Junior Johnson, commented that "now DW has an owner that's as smart as he is."

Great tribute in @DBNJSports to retiring @godwinkelly. To me, Godwin has always been as much a part of the Daytona Speedweeks experience as "Drivers start your engines" or cruising my rental car down the beach. Good man. Great writer. https://t.co/oOAPsB2iiI https://t.co/TzCIdsVPr2

My father in law went to school with Cale Yarborough and he still lives in Timmonsville. I've been fortunate to eat with Cale and David Pearson and it was amazing. The stories are nonstop.

I know Darrell has a bubbly personality, but I think after listening to him go round and round for a couple of hours, I just think I'd just feel drained.

That's pretty cool group to hang with.

.@NASCAR today will announce that the '21 Daytona 500 will be held with a reduced capacity, confirming that the sellout streak will end due to the pandemic.

NASCAR is not confirming capacity today but will reach out to fans about adjustments and limited camping opportunities. https://t.co/iELZKN6PmU

Not sure how much you guys follow short track racing but the Snowball Derby is going on in Florida this weekend. It's the biggest Super Late Model race of the year. This year Kyle Busch and Chase Elliott are entering( both 2 time winners)

Also a couple truck and Xfinity guys entering to go head to head with the best super late model guys in America. Should be a cool race. Coverage is on Speed51.com and Speed 51 TV for pay per view.

It's the first time since 1983 that the current NASCAR Cup Series champion has entered.

After some further thought I might remove DW and add Fireball Roberts

Looking forward to it. I've always enjoyed watching it. Not a big fan of the Chilli Bowl.

@NASCAR exec @WarfieldScott is leaving to join the @PGATour as vice president of gaming, per @Bill_KingSBJ.

Anybody keeping up with the SnowBall Derby? Looking forward to it, miss me some racing.

Watched qualifying last night. Chase didn't make the top 30 and will be in a last chance race this afternoon. Kyle Busch qualified 5th I think. He's definitely in the show. Derek Thorn out of California won the pole.

Chase Elliott wins the last chance race to advance to tomorrow's Snowball Derby.

Congrats to Ty Majski...hope I spelled that right...lol. Pretty good race.

I'm looking forward to them as well, but I don't want too much of a good thing.....I personally like a mix of road, roval, super speedway, and 1.5's....
