1968 - Richard Petty wins his 90th career race by leading three-quarters of the Wilkes 400 at North Wilkesboro. In media reports about Petty's report, the following article's writer refers to Petty's rival and second place finisher David Pearson as a "titular aspirant" - an adjective rarely used I'm quite sure in racing circles. But I suppose kudos are due him (or her) for slipping a subtle double entendre by the editor.
