Smokey Yunick Award to White:

Fayetteville’s Rex White, the 1960 Winston Cup champion, is expected to receive the Smokey Yunick Award at AMS this morning. The award, given annually at the track, recognizes pioneers of the sport. White won 26 Winston Cup races, but his only superspeedway victory came at AMS in the 1962 Dixie 400. ( Atlanta Journal-Constitution )(10-25-2003)
