あらすじ・解説
This week in the first of what will be three installments of our interview, Andy Papathanassiou takes us through his academics-first, athletics-second upbringing in New Jersey and how that helped land him a football scholarship at Stanford. Andy started all four years of his college career, but a major surgery left him at a crossroads in his athletic career. And THAT’s when NASCAR first came into the picture. We then take a deep dive into the June 14, 1990 issue of Winston Cup Scene. The paper didn’t have anybody on the crime beat, so there was no coverage in this issue of Andy Papa’s first race ever and him sneaking into the garage. Rusty Wallace and Ricky Rudd are back at it at Sears Point, while Joe Whitlock turns in another masterful column … this one about his longtime friend Buddy Parrott. And … sadly … short-track legend Butch Lindley succumbs to injuries he’d sustained in a racing accident five years earlier.
