NASCAR Great Bobby Isaac Remembered For a Hot Temper And Heavy Foot - Street Muscle
He had never won a race where he started that far back, but in practice he had run laps that would have started him third if he'd qualified on time. Isaac was unfazed by the position.

The fastest car is going to win if it stays in. He clung to the lead, even though being pressed hard by Richard Petty. On the 71st lap, disaster struck as Isaac ran out of gas on the track. He coasted into the pits where Hyde and company refueled the 71 and then had to push his car out of the pit to get it started. Isaac overcame the lost time from the fuel miscalculation, and retook the lead.
With 12 miles left, one of his car's three hood pins shook loose after a bumping incident with Joe Frasson, and the corner of his hood started flapping. His lead over Petty at this time was only 10 seconds, and Petty was closing. If the hood came loose he would have to stop, and if it looked too dangerous, the flagman could drop the black flag on him and force him into the pit for repair.
Isaac ignored it -- even as the flapping broke the second hood pin, leaving only one -- and kept racing as Petty closed the gap to 4 seconds. With the hood flapping and Petty on his rear bumper, Isaac crossed the line in 1st. The race he almost didn't enter also became the most lucrative of his career.
