Back to Pearson
Not to be outdone, Pearson enjoyed plenty of time in the winner’s circle during the 1974 season as well. This photo was taken after the 1974 Firecracker 400 at Daytona. Pearson let several other driver’s trade leads all race long before duking it out with Petty over the last few laps. Pearson came out on top and got to enjoy the spoils of victory.
