NASCAR announced the inductees for the 2012 Hall of Fame this afternoon. Cale Yarborough, Darrell Waltrip, Dale Inman, Richie Evans and Glen Wood had their names called. I can say that I got the opportunity to watch all these guys drive or crew chief cars. Cale and Darrell probably more than anyone, helped to take the sport to a higher level. Dale Inman pushed cousin Richard Petty to seven championships. Richie Evans was the greatest modified driver I ever saw. Glen Wood and his family team won championships. The voters elected a fair class and one that was deserving. Just hoping my hometown hero, Herb Thomas makes the next class.
