04/21/2017 – Bob Burdick’s brief, but successful, foray into Cup racing shows the true charm of those early days.  Bob only had 15 career starts, 7 of those in a Pontiac, but one of those Tin Indian starts in 1961 gave him an upset win at Atlanta and forever etched his name in the Cup and Pontiac record books.

Enjoy a great article on Bob Burdick, Nebraska’s racing legend –
