Dewayne "Tiny" Lund...
By kevin - 02/12/2002 11:55:33 AM; IP 209.240.222.132
was from Iowa. He got his start at the Shelby Co. fairgrounds (Harlan, been there too). He was bigger than life itself not to mention he was the biggest driver in Nascar history (340 lbs). He once chased Larry Frank (winner of the 62 Southern 500) out in a parking lot stark ass naked! He had a fishing ranch in South Carolina and was the Nascar Sportsman Champion. He did run Grand National (#55) ocassionaly, but was severly underfunded. He used to drive with one hand and wave at the grandstands with the other. He did win Daytona 500 in 63 after saving the life of Marvin Panch who was testing a Lamborghini with a 427 Ford in it. He pulled him from the burning upside down car, and Marvin suggested him as a substitute driver to car owners Len and Glen woods. There was a hairline crack in the fuel line on the #21 Galaxie, and he could not achieve top speed, but made one less stop for fuel and won the race. Storybook ending huh? He drove for Bud Moore in a Cougar for Trans am and Nascar Baby Grand Ams. Switched to a Camaro in 70's. There is a book written after his death called "As Fast As White Lightning" if you are interested.
