  6. Sad to hear. When Buddy was in a race car, he gave true meaning to the words "no fear" I wish him well.

    I am too young to have watched him race, but I loved it when he was in the booth. I haven't followed nascar since #3 died.

    "Now that there is a hot dog wrapper goin two hundred miles per hour!" Buddy Baker in the booth at Daytona. Still one of my favorite quotes ever.
