Don't remember Brian Redman driving NASCAR. However in 1970 Jackie Oliver was racing in NASCAR.I saw him at the Daytona 400. At that time they still had drum brakes and he told me that if you want to go into the pits you have to start breaking the lap before.
I also think that David Hobbs had a go at driving in NASCAR but can't remember when. It probably would be in 1971.
There was a time when NASCAR thought that european drivers would attract fans to there races. I'm sure that Oliver was paid by NASCAR to drive a tin top.
The one driver I want to see full time in NASCAR is a Canadian Ron Fellows. Would be nice if Randy McDonald also a Canadian could get a good ride.
