The Scene Vault Podcast In honor of Chase's win, I present me giving the pole award to his dad at Charlotte in 1992.

The Scene Vault Podcast Rip Blackie Wangerin. A true original and attempted to expand the Nascar map.

I’m on the pastor search committee at our church. We went to hear a prospective pastor preach this morning … and when I introduced myself before the service … he goes … are you the Rick Houston from the Scene Vault?

THAT is what you call being a MINOR celebrity.

My boys ⁦Jesse Houston⁩ ⁦Adam Houston⁩ and ⁦ASU VoiceMale⁩ did what they do tonight … and they were gooooood.

NEXT Saturday night, they take the show on the road to bright lights and big city of Yadkinville!

This is some straight up bull crap … stealing the interview that we did with Andy Petree more than four years ago. Thank you to Keith Rodden for letting me know.

Y’all better watch out … now that I’m closer to getting the tree whittled down to size, I’ve bought a couple of saw horses to cut it all into firewood.

It kept you out of trouble for PART of the trip? What happened on the OTHER part?!?

The F4U Corsair ... the most beautiful aircraft ever constructed.

Current look at North Wilkesboro Speedway. Tornado came right through here. Everything from what we can see from outside looks fine.

I just haaaaaaaaaad to talk about not liking storms in the podcast this week. I could’ve just left that out … but nooooooooooooooo.

God Almighty ... hear the cry of my heart. If anything bad ever happens to my family, PLEASE let it happen to me.

Imagine a day where race fans could have access to this treasure trove right at their fingertips. I can’t understand why the powers that be are against that but here we are. I’m just thankful Rick is doing all he can to preserve as much as possible.

Looking at the Talladega edition where Tim Fedewa burned his heel so badly as our issue of the week next week ... but I KNOW I've talked about the race in the past.

Anybody recall when that might have been? It's not in the log I keep of each episode and the issues of the week.

Rumor from 10/22/87 Grand National Scene ... Rick Hendrick Hendrick Motorsports was set to become half-owner of Junie Donlavey's team.

What might THAT have meant for the future of Junie's operation and his longstanding relationship with Ford??

Seven years ago today, we had the Houston premiere of MissionControlMovie. The film played to a packed house Space Center Houston, with Chris Kraft and each of the then-surviving Apollo-era Flight Directors also in attendance.

As big a deal as this night was, zoom into the crowd and…

Clyde Torkel!

Full disclosure … I’m not a fan of Dale Earnhardt’s infamous “kerosene rags and candy asses” quote. Hindsight being 20/20 and taken in context, he paid for that attitude with his life.

I hereby move that THIS be the definitive Earnhardt quote, from the 10/22/87 issue of Grand…

The very best part of scanning this archive? That’s an easy one … reading them that night on my iPad.

Tex and Mike used to help me when I needed it the most.
